as women for peace are following the tradition of old women peace movements before
the first and the second world war and of the women movements in different countries after the wars and are linked with the international peace bureau ,the European womens lobby and the churches and trade unions in some parts we follow the old demand to
abolish wars and nuclear and mass destruction weapons in long run, against illegal small arms trade and especially against violence against women,and for their full participation in peace and community building as written down in the UN women conferences in the UN decade from 1975-2000 with the resolution 1325.
we try to cooperate with teachers for peace and women and environmental education
and plan a teachers conference in Egypt or Morocco on international level,
as Anna Lindh was a leading woman in European and democratic and peace politics
we try to remember her and women for peace in Germany cooperate with women for peace
actions in Sweden, Netherlands and Switzerland on energy and peace cultures and
try to use the Barcelona process and support the Anna Lindh Foundation in finding new
forms of cooperation between women peace and women groups in the region.
