Signature of the IAPG Declaration against war and authoritarianism for the affirmation of human freedom and dignity

The IAG signed and fully supports the Declaration against war and authoritarianism for the affirmation of human freedom and dignity, written by the International Association for Promoting Geoethics (IAPG). Read the full Declaration here.

Our thoughts are with our Ukrainian colleagues who are suffering from the war, and with our Russian colleagues who took a position against it. We also express our deepest feelings to our colleagues all over the world who are living similar situations in which human freedom and dignity are not respected.
