TEN WAYS YOUR GROUP CAN HELP TO BAN THE BOMB

LETTER from
the Abolition 2000 Coordinating Committee

Abolition 2000 links organizations and initiatives around the world working for the elimination of nuclear weapons through a global treaty, and promotes simultaneous action on steps and measures supporting that goal.  Abolition 2000 also calls for the phase-out of nuclear power and development of sustainable and environmentally safe energy sources.

Anyone interested in the abolition of nuclear weapons is welcome to join us.  Momentum is building to start negotiations on a treaty to ban the bomb- something our network has called for since 1995.  During this meeting we will review our efforts as a network of more than 2000 organizations in over 90 countries, examine regional perspectives and the efforts of our various working groups and affiliated networks.  Join us as we strategize to achieve a world free of nuclear weapons. 

Stay the weekend and join events organized by the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons, a member of Abolition 2000.
