Small arms and light weapons don't just worsen armed conflict and violence; they also make it much harder to improve lives through poverty reduction, economic growth and safe communities. Investing in peace and disarmament is the only way to break this cycle. #IDDNPA

War is never inevitable. Weapons can and must fall silent, for they never solve problems but only intensify them. Those who sow peace will endure throughout history, not those who reap victims. Others are not enemies to hate but human beings with whom to speak.
