Nicole Waintraub

Nicole Waintraub is a Mediation Advisor expert in facilitation and inclusive process design. She applied these skills in designing and implementing Track 1.5 processes engaging senior military officials and other stakeholders in developing ceasefire management practices and other security arrangements in the India-Pakistan context and in the Middle East. Most recently, she has been focusing her development on gender-responsive ceasefire agreements, which she formalised, in 2020, through a certification programme in gender-responsive and inclusive mediation. Further, she facilitated discreet regional security discussions between conflict parties who are unable to engage with each other in official forums, designing modalities of engagement to navigate strict diplomatic and logistical constraints.
