NOW AVAILABLE – REPORT FROM THE ROUNDTABLE MEETING INTRODUCING THE HANDBOOK “ASSURING OUR COMMON FUTURE” TO SWEDISH PARLIAMENTARIANS

Thank you to all who joined us for the virtual roundtable meeting on the parliamentary handbook “Assuring our Common Future: A Guide to Parliamentary Action in Support of Disarmament for Security and Sustainable Development”. The meeting was hosted by Parliamentarians for Nuclear Non-proliferation and Disarmament and co-sponsored by the Parliamentary Forum on Small Arms and Light Weapons (PFSALW), the Association for the Right Livelihood Award in the Swedish Parliament and the World Future Council, with the Inter-Parliamentary Union as cooperating partner.

Nearly 25 Swedish parliamentarians, Government representatives, civil society organisations (CSOs) and other stakeholders joined the meeting to discuss key disarmament issues and processes, including the importance of preventing and reducing the uncontrolled proliferation of Small Arms and Light Weapons (SALW) to contribute to more peaceful and sustainably developed societies.
