CND as a Pressure Group

Although CND Peace Education itself does not campaign in school, we do raise awareness as to how the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament operates as a pressure group and how young people can take “informed and responsible action” on issues about which they feel strongly.

Informing


Taking responsible action:
CND Peace Education also offers free interactive workshops specifically on the topic of Pressure Groups. A brand new activity on the topic is also under development.
