Tobias Debiel

Tobias Debiel is a peace researcher who recently provided commentary on the Ostermärsche (Easter Marches) in Germany. He was interviewed about the current state and significance of these demonstrations, which advocate for disarmament. The Ostermärsche, held in over 100 locations across Germany, saw participation from several tens of thousands of people. Debiel's analysis focuses on the changing composition of the movement and the reasons behind its struggle to mobilize the same numbers as in the past. His insights are relevant as the organizers themselves acknowledge that a higher turnout would be desirable given the current critical global situation. Debiel's expertise helps contextualize the ongoing relevance and challenges faced by the peace movement in Germany.
