September 26th is the International Day for the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons, and this year, people all over took action for a nuke-free world.
At the UN’s New York HQ, that action translated into vocal and active support for Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons, during the UNGA’s events marking the day and – most importantly – at a high-level ceremony where 7 countries signed and 4 countries ratified the the Nuclear Ban Treaty.
ICAN was at both events, and took the opportunity to deliver two powerful appeals to the world leaders, urging them to join the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons.
