The United Nations Women for Peace Association is an organization dedicated to the mission to stop violence against women and girls. Without the empowerment of women, the world is a mess.

Here we are, traveling on an iron cored spaceship, hurling through the universe. It is inconsistent with the genius of technology, science, and architecture to have situations where women are raped, mutilated, prohibited from education, forced from their homes.

We know the letter "D". "D" is the beginning of the word dependable, delightful, and delicious but it is also the letter that begins the words disgusting, deplorable, and dehumanizing.

At this point the world is dyspeptic. Viscerally miserable and that is intolerable.

The United Nations Women for Peace Association welcomes all the agencies, foundations, corporations, and governmental institutions to join with us to make the correction for humanity.

Please join us on our MARCH in March, Sunday March the 12th, 2017 at 11 AM at Dag Hammarskjold Plaza located near the United Nations headquarters of New York on 47th street between 1st and 2nd Avenue. The world is waiting; please help us make this change.

The UN Women for Peace Association, Inc. was founded in 2008, under the patronage of H.E. Mrs. Ban Soon-taek, the wife of UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon.

The UNWFPA is committed to the prevention of violence against women and girls, to the provision of services to those affected by violence, to strengthening the implementation of laws and policies against violence, and to the empowerment of women in countries and societies where they are under-advantaged.

Much of our energy is directed toward raising funds for the United Nations Trust Fund to End Violence Against Women. The UN Trust Fund, established by the General Assembly in 1996 and managed by UN Women, focuses in particular on developing countries, countries in conflict, and post-conflict settings. Our contributions to the Trust Fund directly fund these efforts

Access to education;Opportunities to impact the societies around them in a meaningful and positive capacity; Freedom to live in peace, in an environment characterized by tolerance, respect, empowerment, and hope; and Protection from violence and freedom from the threat of violence.
