Molly McGinty
Board Member
Molly McGinty is the Program Director with the International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War (IPPNW), where she coordinates the federation’s initiatives on the humanitarian and environmental impacts of nuclear weapons and advocates for their total abolition, primarily through the UN Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW).
A strong believer in the power of grassroots movements, Molly works closely with IPPNW’s global affiliate network and partners, including the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (ICAN) and Youth for TPNW, to build a groundswell of support for nuclear disarmament.
She was on the founding Steering Committee of Youth for TPNW, currently represents IPPNW on ICAN’s International Steering Group, and is a Board Member of the Nuclear Truth Project. Molly holds a Bachelor of Science in Social Work and Gender & Sexuality Studies from Salisbury University.
What I love about the Nuclear Truth Project
“I was in the (Zoom) room during the inception of the Nuclear Truth Project and have been a proud supporter and active partner of the Project since. The Truth Project holds a unique and necessary role in our collective work to eliminate nuclear weapons by moving the conversation from impersonal politics of power to a conversation grounded in humanity and justice.
Through the Protocols and various publications, the Truth Project encourages civil society and government leaders to move beyond simply looking at the past to prevent future harms, but to do so in a way that is rooted in respect and right relationship with affected community members. The Truth Project’s initiatives translate these values into tangible, actionable steps that create a path for respect and reciprocity to all parties.
The collaborative nature and true partnership I experience with the Truth Project’s coordinators, fellow Board members, and partners makes this work deeply fulfilling. It is a privilege to be here.
