During the 24th Triennial Congress of the Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom (WILPF), 14-25 July 1989 in Sydney, Australia, WILPF welcomed the Declaration by the Palestine National Council (PNC) of November 1988. The declaration recognises the relevant UN resolutions supported overwhelmingly by the international community, the right of Israel to exist, and denounces all forms of terrorism, including state terrorism. It calls for the convening of the International Peace Conference under UN auspices, overwhelmingly supported by the international community.
