Veterans For Peace Annual Convention
Join Us in Person!
​
Learning from the Past, Building the Future: 80 Years of Remembrance, 50 Years of Reflection, 40 Years of Action
​
For the first time in six years, the Veterans For Peace National Convention will be held in person—and we couldn’t be more excited! Join us at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, as we come together to connect, reflect, and organize during these extraordinary times.
​
This year's convention is more than a reunion—it's a critical opportunity to build community and plan the future of our movement. As the forces of repression grow stronger, as power is increasingly concentrated in the hands of those who profit from war and economic exploitation, we gather to resist those forces and to affirm our collective responsibility for peace and justice.
​
Learn from the Past--Act for the Future
​
-
Hear firsthand accounts from Hibakusha, survivors of the U.S. atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Witness their powerful testimonies about the horror of nuclear war and the ongoing threat it poses.
-
Listen to the voices of a Holocaust survivor’s descendant and a Palestinian standing in solidarity with the people of Gaza in the face of genocide today.
-
Explore the many ways Veterans For Peace members are taking action:
-
Defending veterans' health care
-
Outreaching to active-duty service members
-
Supporting migrants and students facing ICE kidnappings
-
Partnering with labor unions
-
Confronting militarism’s role in the climate crisis
-
Fighting the destruction of Indigenous lands by nuclear testing
-
This is a time to learn, reflect, strategize, and act. Help shape the direction of Veterans For Peace as we work to build a more just and peaceful world.
Stay tuned—our convention website will be updated soon with full details, including registration, housing, and program info. For those of you who are able to join us in Las Vegas, we can’t wait to see you!
