Why Women?
The qualities of nurturing, kindness, caring, dignity, integrity, and loving one another are innate in both women and men. Our cultures have ignored the value of these qualities and have attributed them primarily to women. Therefore it is time for women to come forward with these qualities that they know and live so well.

Women contribute fully 2/3 of the work in the world. Women constitute over 51% of the population. What an impact we can have if we all think peace together, be peace together and act peace together on the same day!

As women we have been led to believe we were powerless, therefore we were powerless. We are powerful; our work output and numbers can demand and create the changes that are desperately needed. As women, we have to do many things in our lives when we don't know how to do them. Yet we know they have to be done, so we set our intentions and accomplish our goals.

As women we also know we can work together - we jump to immediate action in a crisis for our family, friends and neighbors during illness, natural disaster or direct attack. Our world is in extreme crisis with all the wars and the philosophy of greed as a virtue. Let us consciously invest our power in that which will bring joy, peace, and prosperity to all.

Why Participate?
These are simple actions that everyone can take, with little funding or planning. Most importantly the only affiliation needed is to be a member of the human race who wants peace.

For hundreds of generations the political, social, religious, civic and economic activities and theories have not been able to stop the many horrors in our world. These actions for peace are not presenting any specific philosophy except that we are all human and we are all affected by the insanity. Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and thinking the results will be different.

We must live that change and announce it to the world. Gandhi and Martin Luther King achieved change - we are the change. When people can hold the vision of a world where all basic human needs are met, they change their lives. When enough people do this, the world changes.

Reach & Impact
The goal is to have individuals and groups worldwide, from all walks of life, cultures, and religions, from all political, civic, and social affiliations, spread peace, through thought, word, and deed. The more people in communities worldwide who make this choice, in small or large ways, the more effective we will be in achieving our goal of peace.
