A Goodwill Ambassador

Hugh is a goodwill ambassador for the Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom. This is the longest serving women’s peace organisation in the world. It has been fighting for a more holistic approach to peacemaking for 100 years, bringing together human rights, the protection of the environment, economic and social justice and disarmament, in rejection of militarism, inequality and patriarchy as root causes of conflict. WILPF stretches from local to global, as a community of peacemakers working on grassroots activism to international advocacy.

Hugh supports the work of this organisation and will be volunteering his time to perform for delegates at their conference scheduled to take place in the Hague from the 27 to 29 April 2015. For more information about the conference please go to: www.womenstopwar.org
