Women for Peace Cooperation Circle (CC) are women folk who get together for prayers, meditation, and service to the poor and needy children. Most often when religious communities meet, women are in the background while men dominate the show. These CC members formed their own group because they wanted to have the opportunity to voice their own views and create their own programs for peace, etc. Several meetings were held and a core group decided to form the Women for Peace CC which includes women leaders from all religious communities in Mozambique.
