Global Days of Action on Military Spending

Global Days of Action on Military Spending are coordinated events where diverse groups around the world raise awareness and advocate for reducing military budgets. The goal is to highlight the potential for reallocating funds from defense to areas like healthcare, education, and social services, promoting peace and sustainable development. These days involve campaigns, demonstrations, and discussions to encourage governments to prioritize peaceful, constructive priorities over excessive military expenditure. The movement emphasizes transparency, diplomacy, and global cooperation to address conflicts without escalating arms races or fostering insecurity.
