ICAN held its second global day of action for a treaty banning nuclear weapons on 25 June 2011, with 140 events taking place in 25 countries. Dutch campaigners produced this short video highlighting the breadth of support for nuclear abolition.
“There is no way you can use even one nuclear weapon without becoming a victim yourself.”
“I salute ICAN for working with such commitment and creativity in pursuit of a nuclear-weapon-free world.”
“We can do it together. With your help, our voice will be made still stronger. Imagine peace.”
“Governments say that a nuclear weapons ban is unlikely. Don’t believe it. They told us the same thing about a mine ban treaty.”
“I support the work of ICAN. In what sort of world do we want our young ones to grow up?”
“With your support, we can take ICAN its full distance – all the way to zero nuclear weapons.”
“Because I cannot tolerate these appalling weapons, I whole-heartedly support ICAN.”
“I am proud to support the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons.”
“I can imagine a world without nuclear weapons, and I support ICAN.”
