Europe and the world are rearming. An analysis by Attac Austria shows how arms corporations are driving this development forward and profiting enormously, while social and ecological crises deepen. Multi-billion-euro defence packages stand in stark contrast to long-term peace strategies and the fair distribution of public resources. Together, we will shed light on the activities of the arms lobby in the EU and their impacts on society, democracy, and global security.

Billions of euros spent on arms packages stand in stark contrast to long-term peace strategies and equitable distribution. Together, we shed light on the activities of the arms lobby in the EU and their impact, develop campaign-based counterstrategies, and consider communication and protest methods to enable a more diverse public discussion on topics such as arms and peace research.
