We are excited to unveil, for the very first time, our groundbreaking research paper titled "Stop Fossil Fuels from Fuelling Conflict: Why a Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty is an Essential Climate Tool for Peace."
We are excited to invite you to the launch of an insightful and groundbreaking paper through our upcoming webinar, hosted by the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty! This session will feature pioneering research by the Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom (WILPF) on the intersection of fossil fuels, conflict, and peace. The paper delves into how fossil fuel dependencies exacerbate conflicts and highlights why the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty is a vital tool for promoting global peace and addressing climate change.
The discussion will focus on how resource extraction in nations rich in fossil fuels often leads to social tensions and conflicts in marginalized communities, underscoring the urgent need for climate policies that support peace and security.
This webinar will kick-start a crucial dialogue on the link between fossil fuels and conflict, providing an opportunity to leverage this research to strengthen advocacy for the treaty. Don’t miss this chance to engage with cutting-edge research and contribute to meaningful conversations on sustainable peace.
The event will include a panel, moderated by Aakanksha Sharma, Senior Manager, Climate Justice with Sata Sampada at the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty. The panelists include:
Sylvie Jacqueline Ndongmo: President, WILPF International
Michelle Benzing: Environment Associate, WILPF International
Amiera Sawas: Head of Research and Policy, FFNPT
The webinar will be recorded and uploaded to the Fossil Fuel Treaty’s Youtube channel following the event for those who cannot attend.
