Study War No More.

The arms trade has a devastating impact on human rights and security, and damages economic development, yet UK universities continue to invest millions in arms companies, allow careers services to promote arms companies to students, and take money from arms companies to do their research.

Campaign Against Arms Trade (CAAT) Universities Network is an informal collective of student groups and individuals at universities across the UK – students and staff in higher education who are campaigning to break ties between our institutions and arms companies. By linking campaigns across the country we can be inspired by each other, share successes and plan more effectively by pooling resources.

Don’t let your education fall into the wrong hands. Join the movement.

Our Universities Network coordinator is here to support you.
