WILPF envisions a transformed world at peace, where there is racial, social, and economic justice for all people everywhere a world in which:
- The needs of all people are met in a fair and equitable manner.
- All people equally participate in making the decisions that affect the greater good.
- The interconnected web of life is acknowledged and celebrated in diverse ways.
- Human societies are designed and organized for sustainable existence.
WILPF members create the peaceful transformation they wish to see in the world by making connections that:
- Provide continuity with the past so that knowledge of historical events and patterns informs current activities for change.
- Create analysis and action that reflect and reinforce each other.
- Link and challenge root causes of oppression, especially racism, sexism, heterosexism, militarism, economic disparity, and political disempowerment.
- Build and strengthen relationships and movements for justice, peace, and radical democracy.
