After 60 years of work for Peace at the UN.
The Holy See's declaration (25 September 2005)

"It is distressing to learn that estimated global military expenditure for 2004 exceeded $1 trillion and is projected to keep rising, yet little serious attention is paid to the high death toll caused by the illicit brokering, traffic and sale of small arms and light weapons. That more money and intelligence is used for death than for life is a scandal that should be of the highest concern to all nations."

'The Role of Women in Educating for Peace', presented by Brenda Finlayson, WUCWO CIP Convenor and Editor, at the Public Act session during the Conference of International Catholic Organisations, held at the Notre Dame of Jerusalem Centre, 18 - 22 November 2005
