On the 16th of every month, peace loving people of all countries and backgrounds, gather in a vigil for peace here in Nairobi. On the last International Women's Day of the 20th century, women around the world are working for peace and human rights for everyone in the 21st century. During the Media Conference, we will share with the media the stories of the effects of war and what women are doing for peace. Plan to attend. We hope to see you there.
All peace loving people are welcome.
Please join our monthly vigil. A personal appeal On 16th January 1999, a couple of days before the end of the Muslim month of Ramadan, nine unarmed people were brutally murdered in Goobweyn village. The nine people included intellectuals, elders, traders and a young boy of eleven years. The twelve people were kept imprisoned inside a hut. On the morning of 16th January, the militias attempted to kill all twelve people in the most savage and brutal way.
