Reporting from the field

NEW YORK, May 2, 2010

Some 10,000 people participated in a mass demonstration in New York on Sunday, calling for a world free of nuclear weapons. The rally was held one day prior to the the opening of the UN Review Conference of the Parties to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT), which was scheduled to open on Monday. As Communications Officer for my project, IFOR, I was invited to participate by FOR USA's Executive Director Mark Johnson.
