Dear All at First Unitarian Church of Honolulu,
I am writing to let you know about an upcoming online talk and discussion on the campaigning work of the organisation Share the World’s Resources (STWR). I believe that our work at STWR would resonate with Unitarian Universalists, given our common ground of working towards a just and sustainable world of equality and peace. As such, I would warmly invite anybody who is interested to come to our event.
We will be presenting our vision to implement Article 25 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights – for adequate food, housing, health care and social security for all – as a fundamental international law, in order to address systemic injustices and profound human suffering.
We suggest only the massed goodwill of ordinary people calling for Article 25 can bring about an end to poverty in a world of plenty. The consequences of doing so could be transformational for our divided world; socially, politically and environmentally.
The talk will take place on Monday 25th April at 7pm London UK time BST [11am PDT, 2pm EDT, 8pm CEST]. It will last for about an hour. Please reply to victoria@sharing.org in order to register and receive the zoom link if you would like to attend. The event is free.
Please feel free to share this invitation widely. Thank you.
We look forward to hearing from you.
Kind Regards
Victoria Gater and Adam Parsons
