OUR MISSION

We work with affected people around the world to pursue innovative legal actions that challenge powerful actors involved in human rights violations and systemic injustice.

WE'RE KEEPING UP THE LEGAL PRESSURE ON THE UK GOVERNMENT to stop arms exports 

Our emergency court action, as part of our case with Al-Haq against the government, to end arms exports to Israel lead to the announcement that the government has suspended weapons for use in Gaza and the West Bank, but excluded F-35 parts for the global programme, allowing components to reach Israel indirectly. This must stop.
