“What we need now is leadership committed to swiftly concluding this era awash in blood, leadership that understands the price we pay in death and destruction for every hour of delay. What we need now is leadership with expertise at reconciliation and rapprochement. What we need now is women.”

--Gila Svirsky, WIB Israel,

addressing the UN Security Council, 10/29/02
 

  

 

 

All around the world,
Women in Black stand in silent vigil,
wearing black as a symbol of mourning
for the ravages of war and violence.
Our silence speaks louder than words.

We are a world-wide network of women.
Women gathered,
supporting each other
as we advocate for peace and justice.

We invite you to stand with us.
Please wear black.
 

 

Women in Black is a world - wide network of women committed to peace with justice and are actively opposed to injustice, war, militarism, and other forms of violence.
