In 2024, the world spent $2.7 trillion on militaries while only 1/5 of the #SDGs are on track and millions lack healthcare, education & housing.

Militarism doesn’t make us safe — it diverts resources from peace, care & justice. It’s time to #MoveTheMoney.

Why are we talking about the two-state solution when we are witnessing a genocide in #Gaza? ❓

#WILPF is at the #UN 🇺🇳 as diplomats meet for the High-Level Conference on #Palestine. While forced starvation devastates Gaza and the West Bank faces further annexation, we demand action NOW.
