War means death and destruction for most. But for the arms industry it means big profits.
How we can hold our governments and institutions to account for their complicity in the trade of weaponry and military equipment? Why do our leaders continue to funnel money into an industry that is so destructive to people and the planet? How can we build stronger links across borders to strengthen our challenge to the weapons industry?
‘How to stop the arms trade’ is a new series from New Internationalist that explores these questions and more through a combination of in-depth articles, newsletters, discussion events and podcast episodes.
