(Policy profile forthcoming)
This proposal advances a unified disarmament agenda that addresses the full spectrum of militarism (conventional, nuclear, and emerging technological weapons) as a prerequisite for redirecting resources toward economic wellbeing, ecological regeneration, and democratic development. Current disarmament frameworks remain fragmented, unequal, and dominated by powerful states, which prioritise deterrence and profit over peace. The result is a world economy increasingly dependent on arms production, surveillance, and militarised borders, diverting trillions of dollars from social needs and planetary recovery toward wars. Demilitarisation should be approached not as a technical arms-control measure but as an economic and democratic priority. It requires dismantling the web of power linking the arms industry, extractivism, and corporate interests, and building a global peace economy that liberates public resources for social and ecological wellbeing, grounded in solidarity and the right to life of both people and planet.
