Why is militarisation one of the biggest obstacles to mitigating the climate crisis? Join @WILPF's upcoming webinar "Addressing the Root Causes: Taking Action on Military Spending and Emissions to Advance Climate, Gender Justice, and Peace." The speakers will demonstrate the connection between military spending and emissions and the climate crisis from an intersectional feminist perspective in order to work towards a sustainable and peaceful planet Register here  Background: On 3 December, CoP28 wil feature Peace as a thematic convening day for the first time in the annual climate change conference's history.  How does Peace connect to climate change policy? What is the impact of climate change on communities already affected by tensions or violent conflict? What adaptation, mitigation, or other natural resource management actions are possible to support the development of resilient individuals, households, and communities? And what can negotiators at CoP28, or decision-makers around the world, do to address these challenges? This year, join The Peace Piece: Primers for Peace at CoP28, a biweekly webinar series designed to answer these questions and explore other topics related to peace, conflict, and climate change. For more information, please click here.
