International Women's Day
Global Peace Petition
From Women of the World
to Governments of the world

Sign Petition Women | Men

We Are Horrified At The Levels Of Violence Witnessed During This Century And That Women And Children Are The Primary Victims Of War And Poverty. On Behalf Of Society At Large, We, The Undersigned Women Of The World, Demand That Annually, For The Next Five Years, At Least Five Per Cent Of National Military Expenditures Be Redirected To Health, Education And Employment Programmes. By Doing So, One Half Billion Dollars A Day Would Be Released Worldwide For Programmes To Improve Living Standards.

We Also Demand That War, Like Slavery, Colonialism And Apartheid, Be Delegitimised As An Acceptable Form Of Social Behaviour, And That Governments And Civil Society Together Develop New Institutions That Do Not Resort To Violence For The Settlement Of Disputes.

Together We Commit Ourselves, As Half Of The World's Population, To Use Our Power To Ensure That These Demands, Which Will Promote International Peace And Security, Are Met Through Legislation And Action. We Resolve That We Will Inaugurate A New Century That Rejects Warfare And Promotes Well-Being, Justice And Human Rights.
