It's Time for Peace

As official ANZAC Day events focus on militarism and war, Marrickville Peace Group's event seeks to shift that focus onto the obvious benefits of peace at Richardson's Lookout – where the "Peace Tree", supplied by the former Marrickville Council, was planted on ANZAC Day in 2016.

As the Peace Tree grows, so too do our hopes for a peaceful future. However, in the current geopolitical environment, the reality is that prospects for peace are receding. Calling for peace has never been more urgent than it is now.
