In the year of the 75th anniversary of the first use of atomic weapons and of the largest public health emergency in known times, this joint webinar by the recently created European Chapter of Mayors for Peace, the UK & Ireland Nuclear Free Local Authorities (NFLA) and the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (ICAN) focuses on the European peace and security agenda prior to the next Review Conference of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, and the imminent entry into force of the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons.

It will also concentrate on the important role of local towns and cities in creating safe, resilient, sustainable and more peaceful communities.

The webinar will bring together mayors and experts on nuclear disarmament, and will be moderated by the UK & Ireland NFLA and Mayors for Peace Secretary, Sean Morris, who is also Principal Policy Officer, Manchester City Council.
