Is Peace Possible? The San Diego Call for Action

In late October 2007, women peacemakers from around the world met for a summit entitled “Is Peace Possible?” that was convened by the Joan B. Kroc Institute for Peace & Justice (IPJ) at the University of San Diego in San Diego, California.

Due to the wildfires in the area it was necessary to relocate and it was not possible to hold a public event, however meetings continued despite the disruptions.

The summit resulted in the “San Diego Call for Action” being issued, urging constructive steps be taken to assure gender inclusion in peace processes and to encourage specific actions in the fifteen countries represented.
