About Immaculate Tushabe

As a seasoned professional in political affairs and international relations, I bring a wealth of experience from various roles across the globe. Currently, I serve as an Associate Political Affairs Officer with the United Nations, focusing on Libya and Tunisia. My work involves monitoring and analyzing political developments, providing insights for the Secretary-General\'s reports, and supporting the implementation of UN mandates in these regions. I also act as a primary focal point for discussions on Women\'s Peace and Security and maintain vital connections with colleagues from various UN entities. My career journey includes a pivotal role as a Research Fellow at Yonsei University, where I supported studies on the impact of women\'s participation in peace negotiations. I have a strong background in designing and implementing mediation activities, having worked extensively on resource conflict issues in Northern Uganda during my tenure as a Project Associate with PANAMA. I am passionate about leveraging my skills in research, analysis, and coordination to contribute to conflict resolution and peacebuilding efforts. I thrive in multicultural environments and am committed to supporting initiatives that promote stability and development. My experiences have equipped me with a nuanced understanding of the complexities of international politics and the importance of inclusive approaches to peace processes.
