In these turbulent times of pandemic, catastrophic environmental implosions, systemic racism, threats to voting rights, corporate pillaging, the worshipping of weapons, and on and on — women are in the forefront of change.

Come and meet the challenge of change with WILPF members as we seek out solutions together! We envision this Congress as soul-searching, making new pathways into the ending of the system of white dominance of exploitation and violence.
