View Event code of conductComing up this month, due to rising concern and lack of public debate, we're hosting a three part series on AUKUS, as part of our Disarm Kōrero series. We're co-hosting these sessions with our friends at World Beyond War. These sessions will be held on Zoom over three consecutive Friday lunchtimes, starting on Friday November 22nd at 12pm.
We have a fabulous line up of speakers who'll each speak to their area of expertise which will help to fill in some gaps in knowledge. Join us for our three part series where we'll canvas a number of different angles and issues with a range of expert guest speakers.
These three sessions will be held on consecutive Fridays, at 12pm, on Zoom.
