Please join SAFCEI and other civil society for a roundtable on 6 March 2025, from 10:00 to 14:00 (SAST), either
online or in person at the Desmond & Leah Tutu Legacy Foundation in Cape Town.
Nuclear and environmental issues affect us all. When the Chornobyl nuclear disaster struck
in 1986, the radioactive cloud circled the globe twice, with contamination reaching as far as
West Africa. This catastrophe led to major reforms in nuclear safety regulations.
Today, a new and urgent challenge is unfolding in Ukraine, where the largest nuclear power
plant in Europe is under military occupation—once again putting our planet’s safety at risk.
This roundtable will bring together individuals and organisations concerned about nuclear
safety and the environmental impact of armed conflict.
In partnership with Project 90 by 2030, SAFCEI, Koeberg Alert, Truth Hounds, Project Expedite Justice and the Ukrainian Association of South Africa, this event will foster open discussions on:
The environmental impact of war
Nuclear safety risks in conflict zones
Strategies for international monitoring and advocacy
Be part of the conversation that drives real change. RSVP at info@uaza.co.za
