PAX Christie is the international Catholic Peace Movement based in the Netherlands. Their project, Don't Bank on the Bomb, identified 411 banks, pension funds, insurance companies and asset managers in 31 countries with substantial investments in corporations that produce nuclear weapons.
Don't Bank on the Bomb works with ICAN, the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons. Together they are organizing appeals to financial institutions to stop investing in the nuclear arms industry, because any use of nuclear weapons violates international law and has catastrophic humanitarian consequences.
Susi Snyder is the nuclear disarmament program manager for PAX and the author of the annual Don't Bank on the Bomb reports. She spoke at the Symposium on the Dynamics of Possible Nuclear Extinction on March 1st, 2015 in New York. The Symposium was organized by the Australian physician and anti nuclear campaigner Dr. Helen Caldicott.
Snyder was introduced by her friend and colleague Ray Acheson, Director of Reaching Critical Will. That's the disarmament program of the Womenâs International League for Peace and Freedom.
