            1) Deepen our understanding of imperialism and its impact on
women; 
            2) Conduct campaigns on the impact of imperialist globalization;

            3) Build a militant grassroots women’s movement; and 
            4) Join in solidarity with international people’s struggles
against exploitation and oppression.
