Australia’s new strategic alliance with the USA and United Kingdom, AUKUS, brings challenges to a peaceful future, and not only for Australia and our immediate neighbourhood. It’s also a real concern for the US and UK themselves. We explored this issue at our 2022 Raising Peace festival where we heard from speakers from each country in the alliance, and we've added an update on development since.
Kate Hudson is General Secretary of the United Kingdom Campaign For Nuclear Disarmament

The episode starts with the thoughts of much admired political commentator and retired diplomat Bruce Haigh. Bruce died earlier this year and is sadly missed by many. Today’s podcast is dedicated to Bruce in recognition of his lifelong dedication to peace.
