The Nuclear Heritage Network aims to give inspiration and motivation for anti-nuclear activism. It is supposed to be a platform for sharing and exchange of experiences, information and skills. Thus, the Nuclear Heritage Network provides and creates resources and platforms for anti-nuclear activities. We connect activists with each other and with experts, organizers and other multipliers.
