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.
Pugwash Council member Taghreed El-Khodary speaks about the importance of bringing all parties to the table in finding a solution for Gaza.
“The absence of dialogue, the absence of understanding, has led to the creation of this bubble that is Gaza, that is isolated from the world”
