Common Security Report 2022: UK Launch
Join CND for the online UK launch of this timely report on how a shared security architecture can bring about a lasting peace. This year marks the 40th anniversary of Olof Palme's Independent Commission on Disarmament and Security Issues. In its first report in 1982 - at the height of the Cold War - the Commission developed the concept of 'Common Security' - the idea that nations and their populations can only feel safe when their counterparts or adversaries do too.
This year's report - published jointly by the International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC), the International Peace Bureau (IPB) and the Olof Palme International Center - comes at a time when the existing global security order is at a crossroads amid deteriorating diplomatic relations and the rising possibility of a conventional or nuclear confrontation between NATO and Russia. This webinar to mark the UK launch of the report, will outline the choices posed to world leaders - including an outline on building a transnational and lasting peace.
Among the speakers joining us to discuss this topic will be Sharan Burrow, General Secretary ITUC; and Reiner Braun, Executive Director IPB. Chaired by Kate Hudson, CND General Secretary.
