We have some updates for you including the latest edition of CAAT News, our statement on the war in Ukraine and some brilliant opportunities to join the team at CAAT.

Ukraine Statement

CAAT condemns the Russian invasion of Ukraine as an act of imperialist aggression. Russia’s brutal onslaught of Ukraine’s civilian population almost certain involves war crimes. We extend our solidarity to the people of Ukraine, to everyone who is working for peace in Ukraine and Russia, and challenging this devastating war.
