Next week States, NGOs and @ATTSecretariat will be taking stock of the last decade of the Arms Trade Treaty.
This article draws out how to better prioritize the fundamental rights and promote the safety of
those the arms control machinery is meant to protect.

Read all about it! ✍️

Florence Foster, formerly of QUNO, and Hine-Wai Loose, Control Arms, have published a report titled, 'Report No.197: Filling the Gap: How the Human Rights Pillar is Helping Curb Weapons-Related Harm'⤵️https://t.co/pzklEJTy6a

These also illustrate the possibility of meaningfully addressing the responsibilities of both States and companies, offering prospects of energizing the disarmament machinery.
