Listen to the Women for a Change

To mark International Women’s Year 1975, the International President of WILPF, Kay Camp, created a book called Listen to Women for a Change. It featured 50 women working for peace and social justice. To remember our recently passed sister Kay, and the remarkable women she honoured in this publication, we reproduce it for the web. WILPF intends to add new faces and names to this in the coming months to continue honouring women’s work for peace and freedom.
