Ukraine Crisis: Building a Just and Peaceful World
March - April 2022
About "Ukraine Crisis: Building a Just and Peaceful World"
Throughout March 2022, Just World Ed's President Helena Cobban and board member Professor Richard Falk co-hosted a series of eight biweekly webinars in which, with a revolving cast of informed and inspiring guests, they explored the impact the Ukraine Crisis was having on the global balance of power, and the implications of this new crisis for the global peace movement.
The multi-media materials presented here are complemented by the various chapters in the 32-page Report we issued on April 16, 2022, "Ukraine: Stop the Carnage, Build the Peace!" Each chapter in the Report provides a short digest of one of the webinar sessions, and can thus act as a guide to that session. You can download a PDF of the whole Report here. Or, you can order pre-printed copies from Amazon ($5 each), here.
