*[Enwl-eng] Announcing: #NoWar2022 Conference: Resistance & Regeneration (July 8-10)

[ENWL]

                              We're excited to announce #NoWar2022: 
Resistance & Regeneration, World BEYOND War's virtual global conference this 
July 8-10!
                              Registration is now open. Click here to 
purchase tickets.
                              As we resist the institution of war worldwide, 
from crippling sanctions and military occupations to the network of military 
bases that encircle the globe, how can we simultaneously “regenerate,” 
building the alternative world that we want to see based on nonviolence and 
a culture of peace?



                              Hosted virtually through the Zoom Events 
platform, #NoWar2022 will highlight unique stories of change-making, both 
big and small, around the world, that challenge the structural causes of war 
& militarism while, at the same time, concretely creating an alternative 
system based on a just and sustainable peace.

                              #NoWar2022 will illustrate inspirational 
examples of social change activism that, as described by political theorist 
Adrian Kreutz, “bring about this other world by means of planting the seeds 
of the society of the future in the soil of today’s. … [S]ocial structures 
enacted in the here-and-now, in the small confines of our organisations, 
institutions and rituals mirror the wider social structures we can expect to 
see in the post-revolutionary future.”

                              Register for #NoWar2022!

                              Through 3 days of online panels, workshops, 
and discussion sessions from July 8-10, we will explore this unique theme of 
both "resistance" and "regeneration":

                                a.. How to shut down a military base and 
convert the site for peaceful means
                                b.. How to demilitarize the police and 
implement alternative community-centered policing models
                                c.. How to challenge mainstream media bias 
and promote a new narrative through peace journalism
                                d.. How to demilitarize education and 
promote peace education curricula
                                e.. How to divest from weapons and fossil 
fuels and push forward a reinvestment strategy that prioritizes community 
needs
                                f.. And much more!
                              Additionally, interactive discussion sessions 
will offer a glimpse into what’s possible by exploring different alternative 
models and what’s needed for the just transition to a green & peaceful 
future, including public banking, solidarity cities, and unarmed, nonviolent 
peacekeeping.

                              #NoWar2022 is also being organized in 
partnership with the Save Sinjajevina campaign in Montenegro, which aims to 
block a NATO military training ground & preserve the Balkans’ biggest 
mountain grassland. Save Sinjajevina representatives will Zoom in to the 
virtual conference to provide a workshop about their campaign, and there 
will be opportunities to support the in-person actions happening in 
Montenegro throughout the week of the conference.



                              #NoWar2022 participants will leave both 
inspired by what is possible and equipped with the tools to reimagine a just 
and peaceful future in their own communities and worldwide.
