World BEYOND War’s fourth annual global conference on the abolition of war will be held on Saturday and Sunday, October 5th and 6th, in Limerick, Ireland, and include a rally on the 6th at Shannon Airport, where U.S. military forces routinely pass through in violation of Irish neutrality.

We’ll be bringing together some of the best speakers, scholars, and activists from Ireland and the world in the movement to end war and establish a just, sustainable, and global peace.

Speakers will include Nobel Peace Laureate Mairead Maguire.

Details of the conference, including speakers and full agenda, will be posted as they are developed at https://worldbeyondwar.org/nowar2019
