“The UN Charter as a living, legal instrument”
Posted on | September 13, 2019 | No Comments
Dear Friends Our next UNA LunchBox talk will be in the Friends Meeting House in Upper Goat Lane, Norwich on Friday 20 September 2019. The meeting will start with our AGM at 12.30pm followed by the speaker’s talk at 1pm. Our speaker this month is Professor Tarcisio Gazzini from the UEA Law School will talk about “The UN Charter as a living, legal instrument”. In this troubled world and with UN Day coming up on 21 September, this is a very timely talk and should prove of great interest. Many governments choose to ignore the UN Charter which was designed to keep international peace after the second world war. Professor Gazzini has taught at the Universities of Padua, Glascow and Amsderdam and has been a consultant for several governments on matters concerning public international law and foreign investments. He has written extensively on several topics across international law, ranging from the use of military force to economic sanctions. I do hope you can come. Best wishes, Marguerite

“The United Kingdom’s Nuclear Weapons Programme – Past, Present and Future”
Posted on | April 26, 2019 | No Comments
Dear Friends, it is time to alert you to the next UNA LunchBox talk which will take place at 1pm on Friday 17th May 2019 at the Friends Meeting House in Upper Goat Lane, Norwich NR2 1EW.
The talk will be given by Dr Suzanne Doyle who will talk about “The United Kingdom’s Nuclear Weapons Programme – Past, Present and Future”.
Dr Suzanne Doyle is a Lecturer in International Relations in the School of Politics, Philosophy, Language and Communication Studies at UEA.
Suzanne’s research focuses on the US-UK nuclear relationship. She completed her PhD on the United Kingdom’s purchase of the US Trident missile system. Her wider research interests include nuclear history, transatlantic relations, US and British defence policy, security studies and the Cold War. She is currently working on a monograph analysing the UK’s purchase of Trident missiles from the United States.
At a time when the UK is considering upgrading our Trident Missiles at great price, this is an important and timely talk.
best wishes,
Marguerite
Vice Chair UNA (Norwich & District)
