WHAT: NUCLEAR FREE QUEENSLAND WORKSHOP & STRATEGY WEEKEND
WHEN: Saturday November 1st and Sunday November 2nd from 9.00am to 4.45pm each day.
WHERE: at the CEPU Building, 41 Peel Street, South Brisbane, QLD
PRICE: by donation - billets and food will be provided.
The first day will be discussions, debate and a setting of
priorities for action on the peace, military and nuclear issues facing
Queensland and Australia including preparation for opposing the 2009
military exercises at Shoalwater Bay and ongoing work to keep
Queensland uranium-mine free. The second day will be set aside for
strategising together on the issues.
The Queensland Nuclear Free Alliance is a coalition of concerned
groups and organisations that came together in 2005 to campaign for
sustainable and peaceful futures.
Because of the social and environmental impacts of uranium
mining and military bases on indigenous rights, the environment, and
our political standing in the region, we are inviting a broad section
of the community including religious groups, political parties and
members of unions to be part of the discussion.
You can be involved in organising Weekend by helping with:
* accommodation (billets) for out of town people
* supply and/or cook food for week-end
* suggestions for guest speakers and workshops
* facilitation and notetaking
* donating or raising money to cover costs for transport for guests
Please let us know what your needs are - and also what you can contribute! We would value your unique perspective and contribution for this weekend. We also value your support for a Nuclear-Free planet and hope you or someone you recommend will be able to join us in strategising to make this vision a reality!
Peace,
