THE NEXT EUROSATORY ARMS FAIR IN PARIS IS 11TH-15TH JUNE 2018.
Every Eurosatory, we are there and we have been joined by many peace and faith groups in the past, and the network continues to grow.
We have lots of exciting things coming up in 2018, as we are working to raise awareness within France and beyond. In 2018, at the time of the arms fair, we would like to have a large presence in central Paris. We want this event to be fun and approachable, to help the general public become aware of events such as Eurosatory, the influence of the arms trade on foreign policy, and the lack of investment in alternatives to armed responses to conflict.
If you would like to join us in Paris or help us to raise awareness in a creative way, please get in touch at stopfuellingwar@gmail.com
