Delegates from ARC MUN 2015 at UNA Dinner last year

The United Nations Association of Sacramento and the Physicians for Social Responsibility Sacramento Chapter are hosting an annual dinner on Sunday, October 23^rd from 5-9 pm at the DoubleTree by Hilton in Sacramento. The keynote speaker is Dr. Ira Helfand, the esteemed co-president of International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War.

Dr. Ira Helfand also won the 1985 Noble Peace Prize for his work within the International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War, particularly for encouraging multilateral communication about the prevention of future nuclear wars. By having Soviet and American physicians and experts work in the international sphere to prevent further nuclear warfare, Helfand demonstrated excellence in his capacity to give international relationships a quality of unity rather than conflict. His contribution can therefore be seen as a step on the way to a bilateral and controlled disarmament.

This is a can’t miss event and you won’t want to miss out on excellent speakers, delicious food, and getting to network with important local and international figures in the United Nations and the PSR.

I hope to see you all there. Visit our Facebook page for ticket information or order directly from www.unausasacramento.com.
