The world spends an estimated $112 billion on weapons every single year. But there is a huge human cost – especially when many of those sales go largely unregulated.
Whether it's the relentless flow of weapons fuelling Sudan’s conflict or governments transferring weapons to Israel, every weapon sold irresponsibly means more innocent people can be killed. More fuel for indiscriminate attacks. And more children caught in the crossfire.
Governments around the world are willfully taking part in this reckless trade. But we can’t let them ignore the horrific human rights abuses that are happening with these very weapons.

Governments must stop supplying weapons that are being used for human rights abuses. But it will take ongoing, international legal efforts to protect innocent people from this reckless collateral damage.
Will you set up a small monthly donation to help put more pressure on governments to end their irresponsible arms trading?
The more people calling out against the appalling arms trade, the more pressure we can put on those in power to stop it.
Will you take 30 seconds to share this now?
Right now, the government is pushing forward laws and legislation that clamp down on our ability to peacefully protest in the UK, including against sales of weapons to places like Saudi Arabia. They’re making it impossible to hold them to account for their dangerous actions.
Without our right to protest, fights like ending the unregulated supply of weapons would not be possible. Sign the petition now to scrap these anti-protest restrictions and keep protecting human rights for everyone:
