QCEA highlights climate breakdown and militarism

The Quaker Council for European Affairs (QCEA) has launched its report Storytelling from the Frontlines: Forefronting the voices of communities most affected by militarism and the climate crisis.

QCEA says that “through storytellers’ eyes” we see how militarization and securitized responses to the climate crisis negatively impact the natural environment that communities depend upon to thrive and survive. Its through such stories as well that we see how militarization hinders local efforts to tackle climate and environmental issues at the community level. The interviews that make up this report represent voices from people living in places as diverse as from Palestine to Guatemala, and from the Mariana Islands to Vietnam.
