Abolition Now

The Abolition Now! "Campaign aims to create the political will, though the mobilization of civil society, for the complete abolition of nuclear weapons by 2020. The campaign works alongside Mayors for Peace and supportive parliamentarians and governments to promote negotiations for nuclear abolition utilizing effective international and regional fora including the NPT, the United Nations General Assembly, a coalition of Nuclear Weapon Free Zones or a group of like minded states."
