Our PeaceBuilders team teach conflict resolution in schools. We lead the effort to create a Memorial to conscientious objectors in Edinburgh. We are active in the Don’t Bank on the Bomb campaign and the Global Campaign on Military Spending. We advocate ending arms sales to Saudi Arabia and UK support for the war on Yemen.
