Rev. James Bhagwan is an ordained minister, writer, preacher and regional advocate. His work is shaped by the Pacific’s experience of colonialism, militarisation and environmental harm.
Nuclear justice is a long-standing concern of the Pacific churches. Rev. Bhagwan’s advocacy is rooted in solidarity with communities affected by nuclear testing and militarisation across Oceania, including Mā‘ohi Nui/French Polynesia, the Marshall Islands, Kiribati and Indigenous communities in Australia. For him, nuclear harm is not only a political or security issue, but a spiritual, ecological and human one — touching land, ocean, health, memory, truth-telling and future generations.
