SUMMARY:WILPF Brighton Branch Annual General Meeting
DESCRIPTION:We will be at the Friends Meeting House\, Ship Street\, Brighton setting up the room from 2pm with the meeting starting at 2.30pm. We are delighted that Anne is willing to continue being treasurer. Jenny is willing to continue as secretary\, with the help of the subgroup to prepare tasks for events and for us to share those tasks with those able to. \nAfter the formalities we shall have some refreshments and then watch and listen to a power- point presentation by long term member Baroness Joyce Gould\, who has spent many years in the House of Lords working at enhancing the lives of women. She travelled to various countries to gain insight into di\ering issues and collect evidence to back her recommendations to the Lords. Prior to that she had been the Chief Women’s Officer for the Labour Party with all the interesting work that entailed. It should be fascinating afternoon.

SUMMARY:Women in Black vigil: Trafalgar Square
DESCRIPTION:WILPF members regularly attend Women in Black vigils. \nThe London vigil is part of the Women in Black (WiB) world-wide network of women. We are committed to peace with justice and actively opposed to injustice\, war\, militarism and other forms of violence. We hold our vigil every week (see details above) in silence and wearing black. Each vigil has a specific theme\, which is reflected in the placards we carry and the leaflets we hand out. Each week we have a letter which we ask members of the public to sign\, which calls on the British government to take action on a specific issue. Currently our vigils focus on: opposition to British military engagements or threat of ‘interventions’ in other countries; opposing renewal of the Trident nuclear weapons system; calling for justice for Palestinians; and for steps to end violence in the DR Congo; and for ending the arms trade. Our vigils are for women only\, and present a women’s or gendered position on each issue. \nTime and place: Wednesday from 6pm to 7pm at the Edith Cavell statue. It is in St.Martin’s Place\, London WC2\, opposite the entrance to the National Portrait Gallery\, and not far from Trafalgar Square. \nEmail/Join mailing list: WiBinfo@gn.apc.org \nTwitter: @WiB_London \nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/womeninblack.london/ \nVigil homepage: http://london.womeninblack.org/

SUMMARY:WILPF UK Webinar: Feminist reflections on TPNW 3MSP
DESCRIPTION:The Third Meeting of States Parties (3MSP) to the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons convened from 3 to 7 March 2025 in New York City. In the face of rising nuclear tensions and increasing misogyny globally\, the Treaty has never been more important. WILPF UK was represented by two delegates who amplified both Scottish support for the elimination of nuclear weapons\, and recognition of their gendered harms. \n2025 marks the 80th year since the invention of nuclear weapons and their first use\, and the risks surrounding them have grown significantly. 2025 also marks the thirtieth anniversary of the Fourth World Conference on Women and adoption of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action (1995). In terms of the 1325 Women\, Peace & Security Agenda\, disarmament lags behind progress made in the other pillars\, and\, despite progress at 3MSP\, much more must be done to achieve gender equality in disarmament. Taking account of this urgent point in history\, let’s come together as WILPF UK members to understand more about the TPNW – and what we can do to change the UK’s nuclear weapons position. The time for transformative change is now. \nWe will hear from Áine Beattie\, Scottish WILPF member. \nPlease get in touch with us at ukwilpf.info@gmail.com for the zoom link.

SUMMARY:Women in Black vigil: Trafalgar Square
DESCRIPTION:WILPF members regularly attend Women in Black vigils. \nThe London vigil is part of the Women in Black (WiB) world-wide network of women. We are committed to peace with justice and actively opposed to injustice\, war\, militarism and other forms of violence. We hold our vigil every week (see details above) in silence and wearing black. Each vigil has a specific theme\, which is reflected in the placards we carry and the leaflets we hand out. Each week we have a letter which we ask members of the public to sign\, which calls on the British government to take action on a specific issue. Currently our vigils focus on: opposition to British military engagements or threat of ‘interventions’ in other countries; opposing renewal of the Trident nuclear weapons system; calling for justice for Palestinians; and for steps to end violence in the DR Congo; and for ending the arms trade. Our vigils are for women only\, and present a women’s or gendered position on each issue. \nTime and place: Wednesday from 6pm to 7pm at the Edith Cavell statue. It is in St.Martin’s Place\, London WC2\, opposite the entrance to the National Portrait Gallery\, and not far from Trafalgar Square. \nEmail/Join mailing list: WiBinfo@gn.apc.org \nTwitter: @WiB_London \nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/womeninblack.london/ \nVigil homepage: http://london.womeninblack.org/

SUMMARY:WILPF UK Webinar: Women\, Peace & Security
DESCRIPTION:For over a century\, strong women’s movements have advocated for peace\, disarmament\, and humanitarian action. This activism has been crucial in shaping global gender equality policies. 30 years after the 1995 Beijing Declaration and 25 years after UNSCR 1325\, women’s movements remain a critical force for advancing gender equality and peace. While the pivotal role of women in peace and security is recognised globally\, existing women\, peace and security (WPS) policies and international frameworks have been inconsistently implemented\, particularly in conflict-affected areas. \nThe WPS agenda faces the looming threat of being sidelined in a rapidly shifting geopolitical landscape. Ultra-conservative and populist governments have rolled back commitments to human rights and gender equality specifically\, leveraging disinformation\, conservative social norms and faith narratives to support their cause. Taking account of this urgent point in history\, let’s come together as WILPF UK members to understand more about the history of the WPS agenda – and what we can do to ensure it stays relevant and responds to the challenges we now face. \nContact ukwilpf.info@gmail.com for the zoom link.
