Afghanistan: Troops out!
We plan to have seminars on what "peacekeeping" actually means in the Afghan context, on media coverage of the war and lack of national debates, and finally on exchanging experience hitherto on solidarity, discussing what out to be done, possible coordination and cooperation etc. Focus will be on Nordic military intervention and what can be done in our countries to bring the troops home. Participants from all Nordic countries; activists, scholars, journalists and politicians.
