SUMMARY:Disarmament & the Long Walk to Peace
DESCRIPTION:Nova Scotia Voice of Women for Peace applauds the strong nonviolent resistance students have shown on campuses across Canada in their urgent demands for disarmament and a ceasefire in Gaza.  We want to keep that conversation going and learn from their experiences. \n  \nTogether with Science for Peace\, the Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom\, Voice of Women for Peace is organizing  ‘ Walking Together for  Peace” that will include 20 national\, local and international participants walking from from Pugwash to Halifax in September.  The walk from Pugwash will focus on nuclear disarmament but the wider topic of social change (decolonization\, demilitarization and decarbonization) are the foundation for peace and justice. \n  \nThis action has  given us the momentum for this event at the Bus Stop Theatre as well as the momentum to discuss various ways of resistance and calling for disarmament. \n  \nGaza\, of course\, provides the urgent backdrop\, as do all the hotspots of military violence and injustice around the globe. We must challenge the ease of spending billions on war toys rather than human protection such as housing\,fair wages\, health care etc.  Youth engagement in this conversation is one of the key drivers for change. Please join us on August 20 at the Bus Stop Theater . \n  \nPanel Speakers  include: \nSara MacCallum President\, King’s College Student Union \nJoud Ghazal President\, Palestinian Student Association at DAL \nOwen Skeen Representative\,SUNSCAD NASCAD Student Union \nAlexina St. Pierre-Farrow \,Canadian Federation of Students NS \nDr. Jill Carr Harris.
