In summer 2017, a negotiation summit convened in Crans Montana, Switzerland, was inconclusive. GAT notes the disappointment for this result within a large part of the population on the island. As the future of the peace process remains uncertain, GAT remains committed to the goal of gender equality within a post-agreement federal frame - and more so than ever - towards it.
