As the International President of INLW – International Network of Liberal Women, I had the privilege to participate with INLW Secretary General Ms. Ruth Richardson on September 18 th, at the 2025 HWPL World Peace Summit in Cheongju, South Korea, co-organized by INLW partner the International Women’s Peace Group (IWPG) and attend the 2025 HWPL Global Peace Leaders’s Conference “United for Peace and Fulfilling Humanity’s Duty Together”.

It brought together distinguished leaders from all sectors around the world to commemorate the HWPL September 18 th World Peace Summit held in 2014.

On the same day, INLW had the honor to sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), with the IWPG Global Region 8, agreement to cooperate for the realization of world peace, the advancement of women’s rights, and the joint promotion of peace education and diverse peace projects. During the ceremony, INLW presented IWPG with a Thank You plaque as a gesture of appreciation.

Also we were honored to attend the 2025 International Women’s Peace Conference, held on September 19 in Cheongju, South-Korea, organized by an INLW Partner, the International Women Peace Group (IWPG), amongst international organizations and around 800 distinguished female guests and participants from all around the world.

The conference provided a platform for women leaders worldwide to share experiences, propose innovative approaches to peace, and explore sustainable solutions. Women’s contributions to peacebuilding were highlighted, emphasizing their role as leaders and agents of change rather than victims of conflict.

The event reflected on the progress of the global LP program and introduced long-term strategies for institutionalizing sustainable peace. Participants engaged with global networks to share insights and collaborate on new initiatives.

During this conference, INLW Secretary General Ms. Ruth Richardson delivered
a speech on “Providing Female Leadership in Consultations on Climate
Change, Water, Peace, and Security”. She spoke about her personal journey from
a small island to a larger country, the challenges of discrimination, and the resilience
of Black women. She emphasized her commitment to fight for women’s rights,
peace, and safety, quoting Kofi Annan: “We may have different religions, we may
have different languages, we may have different colored skin, but we all are from
one human race.


I sincerely thank IWPG Global Region 8 for the invitation, hospitality and
collaboration.

INLW President
