Peace & Freedom, Fall/Winter 2023 cover

Fall/Winter 2023

The cover of this issue of Peace & Freedom shows “wish ribbons for peace” that Koreans have pinned on the barbed wire fence at the DMZ. The authors within show how WILPFers do more than wish for peace, they work for it in a multitude of ways. Protesting and picketing are important ways to advocate for a better world, but WILPF members also educate and inform themselves. An equally important element of peacemaking involves sharing knowledge of the history, politics, and economics that drive war and conflict.
