APN Manager Mariam Al Jaajaa was invited to give two presentations at the Anti-war Conference held on 5-7 August in Toronto Canada. Organized by the International Women’s Alliance and the International League for People’s Struggles, the conference welcomed anti-war and social justice activists, organizations, networks and movements from different countries that suffer from wars, occupation, militarism and foreign intervention fueling civil conflict.

Al Jaajaa gave a presentation on the impact of occupation on food security and the environment in Palestine, and a second presentation on the consequences of the war on Yemen’s food security and health. Yemen, one of the poorest countries in the world, is suffering from the largest humanitarian crisis today as it fights famine as well as the "worst cholera outbreak in the world". 60 percent of the population suffers from hunger while cholera has hit 21 of its 22 governorates.

Al jaajaa called on the participants to support APN’s campaigns to rehabilitate and replant Palestinian lands to protect them from confiscation and to sign APN’s international appeal calling for an end to the war on Yemen and urging the UN to send fact finding missions to investigate human rights violations.
