Hide Profile

The United States Section of the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom (WILPF) was established in January 1920, replacing the Woman's Peace Party as the official arm of the WILPF in the United States; its aim was to "promote methods for the attainment of that peace between nations which is based on justice and good will and to cooperate with women from other countries who are working for the same ends."
