Take Action on Militarism

This joint project of Quaker Peace & Social Witness and ForcesWatch published the Take Action on Militarism resource pack in 2017.

The resource details how everyday militarism has increased in recent years in different contexts. A series of case studies explore how responses made by individuals and groups challenge this militarism.

Read the intro, then see the contents of the pack. You can download the pack (with more resources and contacts for getting more involved) and also and watch the videos for more from the conference event.
