Armed conflict has a devastating impact on the lives of millions of people around the world. Arms exporters help prolong violent conflict, profiting from the human tragedy it brings.
Yet the UK government continues to grant export licenses to countries involved in armed conflict and to countries classified as being 'of concern' in the government's own human rights report. These sales are supported and promoted by a taxpayer funded arms sales unit, the !LINK HERE! UKTI Defence & Security Organisation (UKTI DSO).
CAAT is calling for the closure of UKTI DSO and an end to its functions. Read more about UKTI DSO

A general election approaches, and we need your help to put the arms trade on the agenda for new MPs and the next government. Lobbying parliamentary candidates is crucial to help us build a strong base of support for our campaigns in the next parliament – where we'll be calling for action to end government support for arms exports. By raising issues in your local area in the run up to the election, you can educate potential MPs and political parties about the arms trade and and set the agenda for future action.
