Here come your Friday’s Links!
Johan Bergenäs at World Politics Review published a great article calling on the disarmament movement to do a better job of engaging youth to provide urgency to the campaign against nuclear weapons.
Check out Travis Sharp’s response to Bergenäs’ article in the Nukes of Hazard blog. He argues that the lack of funding for entry level careers in the arms control field hamstrings the disarmament movement’s ability to reach out to interested youth. Couldn’t agree more.
WFUNA, however, is offering an amazing opportunity to young people engaged in disarmament work. Design your own grassroots campaign to rid the world of nuclear weapons, submit your ideas to hub@wfuna.org and you could win a trip to Mexico to present your ideas at the DPI/NGO conference on Disarmament, Peace and Security. But, TODAY IS THE LAST DAY THAT WE ARE ACCEPTING SUBMISSIONS! So if you haven’t submitted your campaign yet, don’t wait any longer! Check out the Global Disarmament Hub Website for more details.
