‘The conversation we must have’
Online, 6 – 7pm AEST, Tuesday 24 September 2024
Humanity sits on the cusp of a multi-faceted catastrophe. The peace and security of Australians is being undermined by climate disruption, inappropriate resource allocation, the erosion of biodiversity, nuclear weapons proliferation, regional conflicts, cyber threats and pandemics.
How do we avoid catastrophe?
The APSF Vision is for peace and security for all Australians. As a first step, we want to see a broad national peace and security strategy developed by the Federal Government with input by the wider community.
