International Peace Day – 2024

An assembly of CFUW members, friends, and supporters of Peace will gather on Parliament Hill with a display of hundreds of colorful panels calling for Peace in our troubled world. Panels were crafted by individuals in all provinces of Canada and will be presented as Pieces4Peace.

Women and their families are deeply affected by conflict, but their voices are too often lost in the noise of combat. Panels represent the silent voices of women from regions across Canada who want to be heard at the negotiating table. Their firm belief is that fighting is cruelly destructive and damaging to all sides. On the other hand, calm negotiation permits constructive possibilities for resolution while minimizing harm. We Stand for Peace.


No special funds were used to create the panels or organize the assembly. This is a personal plea from women and their families to recognize the power of quietness and calm to move forward and resolve the distress of conflict. More details about this project are available on this website
