Celebrate NZ's achievement on Nuclear Prohibition
We know we live in a very special country – just look at COVID!
But there are also other reasons. For decades we have been fighting a long battle against nuclear annihilation, and in a few days (21 January) an amazing treaty will come into effect; the TPNW (Treaty for the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons). No, it won’t make all the weapons disappear immediately, but it will mean that nearly two thirds of the world’s nations are telling the nuclear weapons states that that is what needs to happen. NZ has taken a strong leadership role in getting to this stage with our Disarmament Ambassador, Dell Higgie. This is an historic achievement, so join in the great celebration of this event on Thursday, 21st January, 12.20-2.30pm on-line.
BE PROUD TO BE A KIWI!!
