Veterans For Peace Annual Convention Starts Today!
Today marks the start of the first-ever Veterans For Peace Online Convention. Taking place from August 2nd-9th, the theme will be "Human Rights over Nuclear Might".
We have so many amazing workshops and plenaries scheduled that we do not want you to miss out! Make sure to check out our agenda for the week!
Our Opening Welcome Session begins at 2 pm (e), 1 pm (c), 11am (p) and will start with an acknowledgement of occupied indigenous lands. Then hear from our Executive Director and other VFP leaders, advisors and guests on the intersections of current events with peace work.
Immediately following our opening, our plenary sets the stage for our convention’s focus on nuclear weapons. The Nuclear Plenary will discuss the impacts of the nuclear era from the bombing of Japan to the health and environmental harm of bomb testing.
