13 apr LAUNCH OF PARLIAMENTARY HANDBOOK “ASSURING OUR COMMON FUTURE” WITH SWEDISH PARLIAMENTARIANS ON APRIL 26
The Parliamentary Forum on Small Arms and Light Weapons is co-sponsor to the online roundtable meeting for Swedish parliamentarians to introduce the parliamentary handbook “Assuring our Common Future: A Guide to Parliamentary Action in Support of Disarmament for Security and Sustainable Development”, which will take place on April 26. The webinar will specifically highlight issues and disarmament processes of relevance including the importance of preventing and reducing the uncontrolled proliferation of Small Arms and Light Weapons (SALW).
The handbook was released in November 2020 to assist legislators around the world and across the political spectrum to undertake effective action on the range of disarmament issues highlighted by the United Nations Secretary-General’s Disarmament Agenda “Securing our Common Future” from 2018. Please find the parliamentary handbook here: https://disarmamenthandbook.org/
The webinar is hosted by PNND, with the Association for the Right Livelihood Award in the Swedish Parliament and World Future Council as additional co-sponsors, in cooperation with the Inter-Parliamentary Union.
