> For those of us working on alternatives to war, it is imperative that we renew our efforts and find ways to increase our impact. Present governments cannot be trusted to deal with conflicts nonviolently or build peace by peaceful means. These became Civil Society’s tasks. Like war, peace is too important to be left to the generals.
Good article, Rene, and while what you say is true about nuclear armed national governments, city governments are open to peace initiatives. I am pursuing one such, that is to persuade San Francisco to officially adopt all the goals of the UN. SDGs and nuclear and general disarmament. Success in San Francisco should open the doors to funding to make a global city network of "All the UN Goals" cities. See https://sfungoals.org.
