Control Arms is pleased to announce the appointment of Anna Macdonald as the new Director of the coalition’s Secretariat. Anna brings many years of experience in campaigning, advocacy, and policy to the role, through her almost 20 year career at Oxfam, and her leadership role as a Control Arms Co-chair.
Anna will help to lead the Control Arms Coalition in the current phase of pushing for swift entry into force of the treaty, and ensuring effective implementation.
“I am excited to be moving into this role at a time when civil society engagement will be really important in making sure ATT implementation is effective, and that the flood of arms into war zones and the hands of human rights abusers can be stemmed. I look forward to working with colleagues from all over the world as we continue the push to bring the arms trade under control.”
Anna Macdonald, newly appointment Secretariat Director
