Our partners at Reverse the Trend let us know about this important event coming up later this month featuring the presidents of International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War, the International Committee of the Red Cross, Rotary International, and the UN Under Secretary General and High Representative for Disarmament Affairs.


Eliminating the Existential Threat of Nuclear Weapons

As experts warn that we are closer to nuclear war than we have ever been, UN Under Secretary General Izumi Nakamitsu and the heads of the two NGO’s with official UN status, Peter Maurer, President of the International Committee of the Red Cross and Shekhar Mehta, President of Rotary International discuss the UN Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons and other steps that we can take to eliminate the existential threat posed by nuclear weapons. Join the one-hour high level discussion on September 30 at 11:00am EDT.

International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War is proud to sponsor this important virtual event along with our partners in the International Council of Nurses, the International Federation of Medical Students’ Association, the World Federation of Public Health Association, and the World Medical Association.

Nuclear war is not the future that must be, but we must act to protect humanity from this existential threat. Please join us for this conversation.
