The 10th Conference of the International Woman Suffrage Alliance was an international women's conference, which took place in Paris in France in May 30 to June 6 1926. It was the tenth international conference which was arranged under the International Alliance of Women.
The conference was held in the Sorbonne in Paris.[1] The President stated in her speech that the women's movement excisted in every country whose principles built upon the concepts of peace, freedom and liberty, and that its goal was justice, international harmony and peace.[2]
The 10th Conference of the International Woman Suffrage Alliance put emphasis on international and global feminist cooperation. This was particularly the case for the cooperation between the British and the American women's movement, a line supported by the Six Point Group and the American National Woman's Party.[3]
The conference is known as the conference during which the International Woman Suffrage Alliance changed its name to International Women’s Alliance, and established a link with the League of Nations.[4]
