Peace & Democracy Forum

Peace and Democracy Forum

6.30pm AEST, Monday 10 July | Zoom

Industries that profit from war have been infiltrating our democracy.

To get progress on peace, we need a strong and healthy democracy, free from corporate influence.

Our parliament does not even debate, let alone vote, before Australia goes to war.

Come and hear about these and other roadblocks to democratic decision-making in matters of war and peace, and how we can tackle them.
