Our third Africa virtual peace conference starts tomorrow! For decades, war in Africa has been fueled by foreign powers chasing profit and control. But across the continent, resistance is rising. Jon us to learn more! buff.ly/22yHR2D

Great to know that only 15% of Americans want to go to war in Venezuela! Wish it were zero% !

John Alderdice gave a deep, fascinating, powerful lecture which will be available in due course on our website abolishwar.net/what-we-do/r... in written form and as a video.

Lord John Alderdice delivered a Remembrance Lecture today full of the wisdom that comes from experience. “There is no formula for ending wars ” he said, drawing parallels with modern scientific systems theory and complexity thinking. New thinking is needed, and the ‘peace ecosystem’ must adapt.
