U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon to Address
International Conference at Riverside Church

On the eve of the Nuclear Non Proliferation Treaty (NPT) Review Conference, United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon will address the “For a Nuclear Free, Peaceful, Just and Sustainable World” International Conference at the Riverside Church. The Secretary-General will participate in the closing plenary on Saturday evening at 7:00 PM.  Both the Friday and Saturday evening plenaries will be available for live streaming.  Please come back to this site on Friday at 6:00 PM and Saturday at 7:00 to link to the live streaming.

The UN Secretary-General’s participation in the international conference reflects the urgency and importance of the engagement of grassroots peace and disarmament movements in the drive to eliminate nuclear weapons. Ban is urging the nuclear powers to take immediate steps to fulfill their NPT disarmament obligation, and has put forward a “Five Point Plan” calling on them to begin their promised ‘good faith negotiations’ for nuclear weapons abolition. (download press release in PDF)

    Thank you and bless you for all that you are doing to save humanity and this beloved planet. I wish I were there with you in NYC this weekend. Are any future demonstrations being planned in the South? I live in South Carolina.
