UN, NPT, Briefing Book

Posted: 17th December 2021

Researchers at the Centre for Science and Security Studies (CSSS) at King’s College London, in partnership with the James Martin Center for Nonproliferation Studies, have published a new edition of the Non-Proliferation Treaty Briefing Book – a resource widely used by national delegations during the month-long negotiations at the United Nations in NewYork. The Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) aims to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons and weapons technology, promote co-operation in the peaceful uses of nuclear energy and further the goal of achieving nuclear disarmament and general and complete disarmament. It is reviewed every five years and the Tenth Review Conference of the Parties to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons will be held from 4 to 28 January 2022.
