About Our Chapter

Founded in April 2019, Fort Myers for a World BEYOND War meets monthly to discuss the steps needed to move towards an alternative global security system. We welcome participation from all interested in working for peace, with a special invitation to veterans who believe that war is not the answer. Through presentations, videos, self-reflection, and dialogue, we will explore why and how we might work together for a world beyond war.

Upcoming Events

Fort Myers for a World BEYOND War meets monthly on the first Sunday of each month, at 4:00pm at the Fort Myers Congregational UCC, 8210 College Pkwy, Fort Myers, FL 33919.

Join us on Sunday, February 23 at 5:30pm at the Fort Myers Congregational UCC for a free film screening of “Scarred Lands and Wounded Lives: The Environmental Footprint of War,” followed by discussion. Scarred Lands and Wounded Lives is a compelling documentary exploring the under-reported environmental impacts of war and preparations for war. The film confronts the immensely broad ecological and human ramifications of everything from technological development and natural resource exhaustion to weapons testing and modern warfare itself.
