Nuclear Weapons and Gender-based Violence

We mark the 16 Days of Activism on Gender-based Violence by hearing from Ray Acheson, an organizer, activist, writer and Director of Reaching Critical Will, the disarmament program of the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom (WILPF), the world's oldest feminist peace organisation. Between 2008–2024 Ray Acheson served on the steering group of the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (ICAN), which won the 2017 Nobel Peace Prize for its work to initiate and organise for the ban. Ray wrote about this work in their book 'Banning the Bomb, Smashing the Patriarchy' and we bring you excerpts of a book launch event hosted on 5 May, 2021 by the Elliott School of International Affairs.Support First nations people working to protect people and planet from nuclear risks go to the Australian Nuclear Free Alliance website.
