The International Peace Office, as defined

«Our main current program focuses on Disarmament for Sustainable Development and within this, our focus is mainly on the reallocation of military expenditures.

We believe that by reducing the financing of the military sector, significant amounts of money could be released for social projects, at home or abroad, which could lead to the satisfaction of real human needs and the protection of the environment.

At the same time, we support a series of disarmament campaigns and provide data on the economic dimensions of weapons and conflicts«.

And elsewhere she explains of herself: «The International Peace Bureau (IPB), over the years, has worked on a wide variety of issues for the promotion of peace, including:

nuclear weapons, the arms trade and other aspects of disarmament; education and the culture of peace; women and the establishment of peace; and the history of peace and other related issues, such as international law and human rights.»
