ICAN UK and TPNW Strategy and Information Exchange Meeting  

Tuesday 9th December 2025 at 6.00 – 7.30 pm (GMT) by Zoom

Draft Agenda v2

Note: Meetings are for information exchange and strategising among ICAN partners and other TPNW supporters, not for collective decision-making. Our purpose is to increase outreach and awareness of the TPNW, and increase our overall effectiveness to influence UK nuclear policies towards ending nuclear reliance, scrapping the Trident programme, joining the TPNW and contributing to the irreversible elimination of all nuclear weapons.

Facilitators:  Gari Donn (Item 1) and Rebecca Eleanor Johnson (Items 2-5)      

Note-taker: (Magali Courades)
