Down the Green Feminist Road - Path to Environmental Peace






Unfortunately, a culture of militarism is a prominent part of education in Italy and has therefore become a normalised part of life.
An agreement between the Ministries of Defence and Education allows the army to visit schools and promote their build-up of arms. High school students are also able to work in army stations. Infiltrating the minds of young people at an early age hides the harm that militarism inflicts ...
WILPF Italy’s members thought it would be important to speak to schools in particularly militarised areas that have a higher risk of environmental destruction.
Cities such as Livorno, Trieste and Palermo host nuclear equipment in their ports. This poses a radioactive threat at a local and global scale, but the Italian government shows little concern about the consequences.
We need to show the military institutions that sweet-talking their way out of their social and environmental responsibilities will not work with the   thinkers of the future!
