Dear Friend --



As we come to the end of the year, this is a good moment to take stock of all the ways we’ve pushed back against nuclear weapons, and to celebrate some of the incredible things we’ve achieved together to build on the blueprint for nuclear disarmament:



<[link removed]>Check out ICAN’s highlights for 2023 here <[link removed]>This year, I was proud to see how ICAN’s team and campaigners around the world took action for a world free of nuclear weapons to a new level, bringing in new allies and new ways of working. After all, nuclear weapons impact everything and everyone, so we need everyone to speak up against them.



While I only took on my new role as ICAN Executive Director in September, I got to see the campaign in full swing during Nuclear Ban Week in New York. There was an enormous amount of energy and action around the second meeting of states parties to the  UN Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW). I cannot stress enough how significant it is that the meeting resulted in an agreement to dismantle the false narrative of nuclear deterrence. This is a major breakthrough, and shows that our plan to delegitimise nuclear weapons, including in national security policies and political narratives, is gaining traction.  And that is just one of our highlights <[link removed]> this year...  







Seeing ICAN’s hard work and successes up close gives me confidence that, together, we can put an end to the nuclear threat forever.  Our successes are only possible thanks to the generosity of our donors, who power our work. So as we prepare to take on new challenges in 2024, will you please consider supporting ICAN?

We hope you will continue to stand with us.  



Sincerely,



Melissa Parke

Executive Director
