Our last episode looked at weapons companies’ influence campaigns on kids in schools, and even in early childhood.
This influence also reaches deep into our universities.
Education in STEM – Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths – should be a public good.
But weapons companies have gone all-out to make sure universities serve their agenda, in research, and in recruitment.
We need to face up to this. And this episode has a great example of doing just that, from the UK.
