Subject: [ICAN Australia] Open letter on nuclear weapons ban
treaty
To: ican-au...@googlegroups.com
Dear friends,
ICAN is coordinating an open letter to Prime Minister Turnbull
from Australian civil society including international,
environmental, health, student, faith, peace and union
organisations.
The letter, attached, will be sent to the Prime Minister on Friday,
and will increase pressure on Australia to sign the Treaty on the
Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons. The Treaty opened for signature on
20th September, has already been signed by 53 countries and is the
primary reason that ICAN was awarded the 2017 Nobel Peace Prize.
Please join the call and reach out to your groups and
organisations. To sign on, email the name of your group to g...@icanw.org
by 5pm on Thursday 19th October.
Best,
Gem.
