Pugwash seeks a world free of nuclear weapons and other weapons of mass destruction. Through our long-standing tradition of ‘dialogue across divides’ that also earned us the Nobel Peace Prize in 1995, Pugwash aims to develop and support the use of scientific, evidence-based policymaking, focusing on areas where nuclear and WMD risks are present. By facilitating track 1.5 and track II dialogues, we foster creative discussions on ways to increase the security of all sides and promote policy development that is cooperative and forward-looking.
On 28 February 2013 Pugwash convened the latest in an ongoing series of consultations which have addressed the Iranian nuclear program in various contexts.
“US-Iran rapprochement is the major step forward that canhelp the nuclear issue.”
