The International Women’s Peace Conference 2024 will be held in South Korea in September.
Organized by the International Women’s Peace Group (IWPG), the conference will showcase examples of peace activities led by women leaders worldwide.
In a statement IWPG issued, it said based on the improved peace outcomes from last year, the group will introduce peace action campaigns and encourage participation.
“We have organized this event to show the development of peace activities. We plan not only to share actual examples but to provide direction so that this momentum continues,” the statement said, mentioning an unnamed IWPG official.
Last year, IWPG held the conference on “The Role of Women for Sustainable Peace,” highlighting the contributions made by women from around the world to establishing world peace. This year, through women leaders’ latest activities, the conference will present concrete and practical action plans to realize peace.
The upcoming conference on September 19 is expected to emphasize women’s peace education, focusing on the outcome of peace initiatives. Themed ‘The peace activities themselves can serve as teaching materials for peace education’, the 2024 conference will be a platform for IWPG to collect the peace efforts of women leaders worldwide. These will be used as another form of peace education to inspire the spirit of peace.
