Support and sign the declaration against nuclear weapons


Cynefin y Werin supports the World Court Project's Affirmation of Freedom from Nuclear Weapons.

Nuclear weapons do not make us secure. They are about insecurity, doubt and fear. People want to live in aworld free from the nuclear threat. This hope has the backing of law:

in 1968 the world’s governments signed a treaty promising to abolish these weapons;
in 1996 the World Court confirmed that this was a legal obligation, to be pursued in good faith;
in 2000 the US, Russia, France, China, and the UK made an "unequivocal commitment to accomplish the total elimination of nuclearweapons."
The network is encouraging supporters to complete and return the declaration that states:
I do not accept that nuclear weapons can defend me, my country, or the values I stand for.
