A link up and live update between activists at the 2023 UN Climate Change Conference, the COP 28 in Dubai, and the 2nd Meeting of States Parties to the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons, the 2MSP in New York. In New York, activists will gather and call in together from The Bahá'i International Community's United Nations Office in New York. Those in Dubai will zoom in to join the conversation.
Join us as we discuss the links between these two existential threats and connect with our colleagues at the COP28 on how we can learn from each other and help build a stronger movement. Activists and experts at both events will share information, speak on the proceedings and what is expected to come of the meetings, and discuss the vitally important connections between the two issues of abolishing fossil fuels and nuclear weapons. The conversation includes activists from the Warheads to Windmills Coalition, International Peace Bureau, Peace Boat, Women's International League for Peace and Freedom, Fossil Fuel Treaty Initiative, International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War, and more!
