Celebrate with us the remarkable UN Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons coming into force.

About this event

NOTE - free registration is required, for up to 90 people, to meet covid requirements.

ALSO - to book and pay now for Kidogo food (their delicious home-made meal of soda bread; hot or cold soup depending on the weather; and dessert) is required separately through this booking link : https://www.trybooking.com/BNQZK. (Please book this now to help the wonderful Kidogo caterers!)

Celebrate in fine style the many people, many ways, and so many years of effort for this international shift to legally stigmatise nuclear weapons, culminating in this day, January 22, 2021 as the UN Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons enters into force in international law.

So we are celebrating! With music, speakers and convivial chat, a beautiful sunset over the Indian Ocean at Bathers Beach, together on Kidogo Arthouse deck.

Join us, enjoy the view and company and historical moment for our precious planet's next step towards removing the threat of nuclear weapons.

(If on the day you find yourself unwell, please observe covid guidelines and stay at home, and find other ways to celebrate with us from afar.)

Speakers include noteworthy members of our community who have been involved with issues of peace and social justice in local and international realms.

Dr Tarun Weeramanthri is a distinguished leader of public health policy and practice. A former Chief Health Officer for the WA Department of Health, he brings a wealth of experience to share with us on vital public health issues both international and local, and now is putting this experience into action as the medical delegate on International Humanitarian Law Committee of WA branch of Australian Red Cross, and as the President of the Public Health Association of Australia.

Melissa Parke is one of us! Born in Donnybrook, she became  a human rights lawyer, who worked in the front line in such drastic war zones as Kosovo, Lebanon and Gaza.  For 9 years she was Fremantle’s vocal Federal Member, where she kept up her representation of and advocacy for the powerless and the oppressed. Always a supporter of MAPW, she became an ardent Ambassador for ICAN, taking our message of hope and practical action into fora local, national and international.

More information about the Treaty, please see this link

We are delighted with the offered music from Ali Tapper, and from Taiko On. We hope for the soothing breeze effect from our Fremantle Doctor, along with the ocean waves and community conviviality.

Supported by MAPW (the Medical Association for the Prevention of War), ICAN (International Campaign for the Abolition of Nuclear Weapons), Mayors for Peace Fremantle, the Red Cross and Conservation Council of WA, amongst others.
