On this episode of Women on the Line we hear from Alejandra Munoz, project officer at Dutch peace organisation PAX. She is currently leading the Don't Bank on the Bomb research, a joint project by PAX and the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (ICAN). Alejandra spoke about PAX/ICAN's latest report, 'Moving Away from Mass Destruction', and the role that financial institutions play in the anti-nuclear weapons movement. We then hear from Emma, a primary school teacher based in Narrm/Melbourne, about the increased militarisation of the school curriculum and the involvement of nuclear weapons companies in these programs.
