MAW's Remembrance lecture, Sunday 10 November. Imagining Peace: Taking inspiration from the 1923–24 Welsh Women’s Peace Petition.

I would be very pleased if you could let your members know about MAW’s 2024 Remembrance Lecture

Imagining Peace:
Taking inspiration from the 1923–24 Welsh Women’s Peace Petition.

Each year, the Movement for the Abolition of War invites an expert to give the Remembrance Lecture, and in 2024 we are looking forward to hearing from Prof Mererid Hopwood. As well as being one of MAW’s Vice Presidents, she has the honour of being Archdruid of the National Eisteddfod of Wales, and is Secretary of Academi Heddwch Cymru, Wales’s national peace institute. She is a poet, translator and academic who leads the Department of Welsh and Celtic Studies at Aberystwyth University. She has won several awards for her literary works and has published many books and articles in Welsh and other languages.

We look forward to an inspiring talk!
