who we are
The Scottish Peace Network is a network of groups in Scotland coming from a variety of different traditions which are united in opposing militarism and share a common vision for a peaceful Scotland focusing on what we as a society have done, and can continue to accomplish, though cooperation, collective action, and peaceful means.
what we do
Together we organise opposition to:
the possession, use or threat to use nuclear and other weapons of mass destruction.
all military aggression, in particular any armed aggression against others by our own government, alone or within NATO or any such military alliance.
economic dependence on the production and trade of weapons systems that might be used to repress free expression, commit human rights violations or kill innocent human beings.

We are joining our colleagues in Dove Tales in supporting an Armenian prisoner of war.
Andranik Mikaelyan is being held in Azerbaijan in breach of all conventions of war.
He was born in 1998 and grew up in Gyumri. After his compulsory military service, he worked as a chef in a kitchen. He was also a delivery man for a while. He is an only child.
He is said to be friendly, patient, and willing to help those in need. He loved football from a young age and would have certainly cheered at Armenia's recent victories in the Euro 2024 qualifying tournament against Wales and Latvia.
