Nuclear weapons programmes divert public funds from health care, education, disaster relief and other vital services. The nuclear-armed countries spend more than $150,000 per minute on their nuclear bombs, over $80 billion each year, a value twenty times higher than the regular UN budget.
Nuclear weapons affect all of us, so it’s up to all of us to push back against the absurd sums of money wasted on nuclear weapons. And this week of action is an opportunity for all of us to speak out, together. Please join us (sign up here) for this week of action 16- 22 September, 2024. – No Money for Nuclear Weapons!
