Representing six decades of Reardon’s work, the discussion of these two volumes will provide a base for exploring the links between Security Council Resolution 1325 on Women, Peace and Security to the possibilities for the abolition of nuclear weapons. The program will also include Janet Gerson, Education Director of the International Institute on Peace Education.
