Ripples of Peace

A Gathering for People and Peace with Secure Scotland

Come along for an afternoon of connections and community action-planning for sustainable peace with Secure Scotland and the Scottish Peace Platform! Registration below.

Are you part of a peace or human rights group, or a climate and justice campaigner in Scotland? Are you interested in creating a culture of inclusion and peace? Do you want to know more about the grassroots and community-based efforts happening across the country? This event is for you.

Bringing together activities and discussions to reimagine conflict, security, and militarisation, the afternoon will be a chance to get to know other people who are engaged in this and ‘dream on’ about Scotland’s role in a fair and peaceful world. This will be followed by a shared, vegetarian Lebanese meal provided by Hummus!

The event is also a chance to learn a bit more about Secure Scotland and the Scottish Peace Platform. Secure Scotland challenges prevailing ideas about security through starting a better conversation about keeping safe. The Scottish Peace Platform is a network for Scotland’s peace sector.

We’ll meet at Secure Scotland’s Edinburgh home, Words & Actions 4 Peace, and the event is open to all (booking required.) Please get in touch with any questions about the event, attendance, or accessibility.
