Students say No to War on Yemen
\nThe war in Yemen has entered its sixth, devastating year. Over 100,000 people have died and millions are the brink of famine. The British Government is complicit in this war; over \u00a35 billion worth of arms have been sold to the Saudi coalition since the start of the war and RAF personnel have maintained Saudi planes and directed the bombings. Stop the War Coalition, alongside organisations around the world, has called a global day of action against the war on Yemen on 25th January 2021. Students have played a major role in fighting against British involvement in the war, organising protests across the country over the summer, and will have a vital role in building the day of action. Join us to discuss how we can take action on the 25th January and end the war on Yemen.
\n— Speakers (tbc):
\nLucy Nichols, Stop the War
\nMalak Mayet, Campaign Against the Arms Trade
\nAdhiyan Jeevathol, London Students for Yemen
\nLamar Campbell, Young Labour International Representative
\nHasan Patel, Young Labour Under 18’s Representative

United Nations Research Institute for Social Development
\nDevelopment, Environment and Peace Nexus (DEEPEN): Peace Making in Borderlands
\n— Violence and conflict in borderlands are inseparable from environmental degradation and hinder social development. This close connection, however, also provides the potential to reverse the vicious cycle of conflict, disruption to nature and social exclusion and move, through a holistic transformative approach, toward a virtuous cycle of peace, ecological integrity and inclusive development. At this uniquely multidisciplinary conference, speakers will explore the complex relationships between development, environment and peace in borderlands, challenging conventional approaches and introducing innovative theories and practices for sustainable and peaceful development.

\nLe d\u00e9sarmement conventionnel, influence t-il le d\u00e9sarmement nucl\u00e9aire ?
\n— L\u2019Union europ\u00e9enne, et plus largement les Etats du continent europ\u00e9en ont une approche tr\u00e8s vari\u00e9e concernant le sujet du d\u00e9sarmement nucl\u00e9aire. . . Dans le domaine du d\u00e9sarmement conventionnel l\u2019unit\u00e9 est plus forte, tous ayant adh\u00e9r\u00e9 aux diff\u00e9rentes normes internationales. La r\u00e9cente fin du Trait\u00e9 sur les forces nucl\u00e9aires \u00e0 port\u00e9e interm\u00e9diaire (qui visait \u00e0 \u00e9liminer des missiles emportant aussi bien des charges nucl\u00e9aires ou conventionnelles) a montr\u00e9 une n\u00e9cessit\u00e9 de renforcer une voie europ\u00e9enne du d\u00e9sarmement (face \u00e0 la Russie, la Chine, les Etats-Unis). Mais cette voie commune peut-elle exister au niveau du d\u00e9sarmement conventionnel et nucl\u00e9aire ? Ou c\u2019est l\u2019unit\u00e9 face aux enjeux de d\u00e9sarmement classique qui peut permettre d\u2019entrainer (une sorte d\u2019\u00e9tapes par \u00e9tapes) une position plus forte et commune sur l\u2019interdiction et l\u2019\u00e9limination des armes nucl\u00e9aires ?
\n— ICAN France, avec le soutient de la Heinrich Boell Stiftung Paris, vous invite \u00e0 entendre des chercheurs et parlementaires sur ces r\u00e9flexions, puis \u00e0 d\u00e9battre avec eux.
