Summary

War is changing the security, human rights, social and ecological contexts across Europe and the wider Mediterranean and Middle Eastern regions; parts of which, such as Syria, have been in a state of war for over a decade.

Description

War is changing the security, human rights, social and ecological contexts. We bring together a panel of experts and activists to discuss how we build solidarity across borders and support progressive solutions to present-day conflicts. In the context of Russia’s war on Ukraine, how do we build a model of collective security across Europe and surrounding Mediterranean regions? How do we support progressive and civil society movements that oppose war and authoritarianism? How do we protect human life, support de-militarisation and build links with the peoples of Russia, Syria, Afghanistan and surrounding areas?
