While war and genocide means devastation for most, for the arms industry it means big business. While the arms trade is vast and secretive, there is a groundswell of people across the world taking action to challenge its power, from the gates of arms factories to our highest courts.

In late April, at Palestine House in London, New Internationalist editors were joined by speakers at the frontlines of some of these movements to discuss how our governments and institutions are fuelling armed conflict and genocide around the world from Palestine to Sudan, what we can do about it and how to build international links in the process.

Featuring speakers from Palestine Action, Peace Direct, Campaign Against Arms Trade and Global Legal Action Network.
