This is one of the Threats identified during a SWOT analysis of the current world situation.

  • In all regions of the world, national governments spend far more money on arms than on development, health or education.
  • Military sending takes colossal amounts of money, technical and human resources which are urgently needed for development.
  • Chemical and biological weapons are being made in new varieties and greater quantities.
  • Nuclear, chemical and biological weapons continue to spread.
  • The movements of people fleeing war is still a huge problem in the world today. In 1999 the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) estimated there were 11.5 million refugees and between 20 and 25 million people who have been forced out of their homes but have stayed within their own country. No national government sees any benefit to themselves in paying to help them.
