"Tables of Peace": convivial moments to support Ukrainian conscientious objectors
The initiative organised by the NGO Un Ponte Per to support the Ukrainian conscientious objectors to the war in Ukraine has kicked off: throughout Italy it will be possible to organise solidarity meals to experience a moment of conviviality and contribute to peace building.

Rome, 20 December 2022 - Dinners, lunches, aperitifs, convivial moments organised by anyone who wants to contribute to peace building in Ukraine: this is the initiative "Tables of Peace" launched by the NGO Un Ponte Per, active for over 30 years in conflict prevention, committed this year to supporting conscientious objectors in Ukraine, Russia and Belarus.

"Tavole di Pace" is a series of awareness-raising and fund-raising initiatives that will be carried out throughout Italy by volunteers, individuals and associations to support Un Ponte Per's campaign "Ukraine. Protect the objectors, support the peacemakers", launched on the occasion of Christmas.

By adhering to the initiative it will be possible to build a moment of conviviality and good food, getting to know better the activities of Un Ponte Per, and to support through fundraising those who are putting their lives at risk to defend peace in Ukraine.

Organising a "Peace Table" and becoming a Peace Builder is very simple: just write an email to tavoledipace@unponteper.it or fill in the form at this link: https://tavoledipace.unponteper.it/.

Un Ponte Per will provide all the necessary information, practical help in organising, and will report on the event on its social channels to support and promote participation.

Un Ponte Per has participated in numerous initiatives in solidarity with the Ukrainian population, and organised together with the Nonviolent Movement the last Caravan for Peace "Stop the War Now" in September 2022. For more information on the organisation's work in Ukraine: www.unponteper.it
