The Women's Peace Council was a group that, during World War I, campaigned for a negotiated end to the conflict.
[3] Their Facebook page[4] describes the purpose of the group as follows: "The Women’s Peace Council will bring together people from different backgrounds to imagine a world without fear and hatred.
The Charter Members include Dimah Mahmoud, Rosa Davis, Kath Knight, Tracy Chapman, and Jennifer Carolyn King.
