Environment and Militarism
Our goal: Transform ideas of security from that of military might into human rights, justice and peace for all.
Why: Military activities devastate the environment – urban and rural. Air, food, water, DNA – everything is affected. As primary carers, women bear the brunt of these changes.
How: Incorporate gender analysis into work on environmental degradation (particularly resource pollution, land control disputes and mass migration) and especially that caused by military action, including the development, production and sales of arms.
