Happy International Women's Day!
Of course, we should all remember how important women are everyday of the year. Gender issues need to be at the forefront of all of our work - from understanding development needs, to the cessation of war, to the composition of legislatures, to the identity of national leaders. In honor of all of the strong women past and present who have helped make the world a better place, please join me in celebrating International Women's Day.
The US Section of Women's International League for Peace and Freedom is celebrating the day by announcing our campaigns for the next three year cycle, Women Challenge U.S. Policy: Building Peace on Justice in the Middle East and Save the Water. Information available here.
