This webinar will provide an update on nuclear weapons policies and programs and an overview of relevant developments in international law. It also will suggest the need to rethink familiar approaches to disarmament, and to shift the focus of disarmament advocacy from recognizing the effects of nuclear weapons to analyzing the causes of nuclear arms racing and of the risks of war among nuclear-armed countries – the same root causes driving many of our other most pressing crises.

Speakers: 

• Jackie Cabasso, Executive Director of the Western States Legal Foundation,
• John Burroughs, Senior Analyst for the New York City-based Lawyers Committee on Nuclear Policy
• Andrew Lichterman, policy analyst and lawyer with the Oakland, California-based Western States Legal Foundation
