WFWP Finland - Women Together Working for World Peace


This was WFWP Finland’s event collaborating with two other associations, Finnish Syrian

Friendship Association and Plus Collective on the theme Women working together for world peace.

Mania Al Khatib from Finnish Syrian Friendship Association shared on her recent visit to her

homeland Syria. She expressed how the December 8, 2024, is a date for freedom for Syria from

oppressive totalitarian regime of Assad. Just now that there are not roadblocks, it allows women to

meet each other and even to start looking for opportunities for extra income and create some small businesses for their families.

Sabina Morandi, a co-founder of Plus Collective association, explained how she with her organization

has been doing grassroots activities using arts and music and theatre to provide a forum for women to

have a chance to express and share on difficult topics, experiences eg. on domestic or other violence

or other difficult issues. She and her team create events in public places where ordinary people can

attend even just by walking and hearing eg. interesting music.

Päivi Yoshizumi from WFWP shared on principles of WFWP and the themes of this year of 2025.

She mentioned on astrology prediction for 2025 by Pam Gregory that this year 2025 is a special year

and could be defined a transition year and revolution of love. Ms. Gregory encouraged to create co-

operation with different groups and to join in activities that resonate with oneself.

We had visitors representing other organizations in the audience. In the end there were active

discussions how to create cooperation between participants. It was truly a delight to share with each

other and realize that by cooperation we can help each other and create something bigger and bring

joy and happiness.
