Peaceworker Update Quaker Advocacy to Ban the Bomb
September 8 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Free
Eight months ago Quakers responded to an ICAN request for a boost of advocacy ahead of the ALP National Conference.
Part of the Quaker response was to support ICAN lobbying and conference stalls and lobby parliamentarians as Quakers.
Quakers also felt led to invite guests from the Pacific on an advocacy tour, and we worked with ICAN and the Pacific Conference of Churches to make this happen in June.
In the first hour of this session we’ll hear from ICAN about the impact of the advocacy of the last eight months, as well as what comes next for them. The second hour of the session will be in worship and worship sharing, as Quakers seek to discern what this means for our advocacy about this concern into the future.
This will be a Quaker focused event, however all Friends and like-minded friends are welcome to join.
