About Peace Action WellingtonPeace Action Wellington is a group based in Wellington, New Zealand that works for peace and justice throughout the world, with a special focus on the New Zealand government's involvement in international affairs. We stand for peace with justice and self-determination. Peace cannot be achieved by the subjugation of peoples by foreign powers. We are opposed to the endless and counterproductive "War on Terror" - instead, the conditions that drive people to resort to terrorism must be addressed. Although PAW is an independent organisation with individual membership, it also functions as a united front for groups opposed to unjust war. Members of various left wing political parties, socialist organisations, unions, other groups and anarchists, participate in running PAW. As a broad coalition of diverse people, PAW acknowlegdes and respects the ideological differences of its members, while working towards shared goals. PAW generally meets every second Monday at 7pm, for either a planning meeting or a public discussion. New members are always welcome; contact us for further details.
