Ross Jackson (author, Occupy World Street ) & Rupert Read (author, "Guardians of the Future") discuss radical ideas for protecting the interests of future generations.

The costs of decisions we make today will be borne by future generations; the issue of intergenerational justice is at the heart of the need to act on climate change. So how might the world be different if the interests and basic needs of future generations were given legal protection? Come along to hear Ross and Rupert discuss their ideas, and to join in the public debate that follows.

London CAAT's monthly meeting to discuss future plans to campaign against the elements of the arms trade that exist within our city.

A workshop exploring personal storytelling aimed at hospice chaplains and others who work with the ill or dying. At the London Interfaith Centre in Queens Park.
In this workshop we will be introduced to working creatively with our personal life experiences. We will explore ways of crafting our own memories into stories and encouraging others to share their own life tales. Reflecting on exchanging these story gifts leads open a natural way to discuss compassion, acceptance, forgiveness and understanding.

Its that time again! It is time for a very interesting talk on Saturday 17th March at 11oc am in the Cube at the Forum. The title of the talk will be "Feeding the World in the 21st Century - the Challenges Facing the UN World Food Programme (WFP)"

One year has passed since the UK was condemned for its arms sales to authoritarian regimes in the Middle East and North Africa …but the UK is still supplying weapons to dictators.

This time last year, while UK weapons were being used against civilians in Libya, David Cameron went on a tour to promote weapons sales in the Middle East. In 2011, Saudi Arabia deployed armoured vehicles to help suppress protests in Bahrain, but UK arms sales to the kingdom never even slowed.

Now is the time to take action to expose that This is NOT OK.
