Through a global network of Ambassadors for Peace, Women for Peace seeks to build a broad alliance among women leaders. Guided by universal principles, Women for Peace promotes in partnership among people of every race, religion, nationality, and culture. Moreover, knowing that stable marriages and families are the building blocks of the good society, Women for Peace advocates strengthening the family. Recognizing that human dignity and human rights derive from a universal divine source, Women for Peace promotes interfaith cooperation by encouraging interfaith dialogue and service. It advocates a life of service to others as a guiding principle and supports the achievement of the UN Millennium Development Goals, which seek to improve the status, education, and physical well-being of women.

Women and children suffer most from wars, and women can bring vital feminine dimensions to peace processes. Women for Peace supports UN Security Council resolution 1325, which calls for increasing involvement of women in preventing and resolving conflicts, peace negotiations, peace-building, and post-conflict reconstruction. Its annual Parallel Event in New York related to the UN Commission on the Status of Women engages leaders from civil society and religion in sessions with diplomats on issues under consideration by the UN. Forums in various parts of the world bring together women leaders active in conflict resolution and building community cohesion. Japanese Tea Ceremonies introduce diplomats to the "heart of peace" cultivated through this ancient ritual: harmony, respect, purification, and enlightenment.
