Interview: Youth are engaging the intersections of peace, climate action and women’s empowerment
Steve Staples speaks with Vanessa Lanteigne of Voice of Women for Peace
How do nuclear weapons increase climate change? How does climate change deny the rights of women? These are the questions being asked by youth activists through the new Youth Fusion working group of Abolition 2000, a global network of peace groups.
You cannot look at climate change without disarmament.
