“Today, wars are proliferating and the major powers are rearming, yet the streets remain strangely quiet. … Pacifist engagement – which is stigmatised by a media that is quick to conflate it with support for Hamas, the Iranian regime or the Kremlin, and sometimes repressed – sits uneasily with the zeitgeist. Such engagement demands stubborn optimism, a conviction, forged through struggles which sometimes succeed, that nothing is settled, that collective action can still alter the course of events.” https://mondediplo.com/2026/04/01edito
