What we do

The Omega Research Foundation is an independent UK-based research organisation.

We are dedicated to providing rigorous, objective, evidence-based research on the manufacture, trade in, and use of, military, security and police (MSP) technologies.  

This research has been used to develop and monitor effective trade controls and standards on the manufacture, trade, and use of MSP equipment; hold governments to account for the transfers they authorise; challenge questionable transfers of MSP equipment; educate policy makers, journalists & human rights monitors, amongst others; and provide redress for torture survivors.
