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 5-6 June 2015 Pugwash, in collaboration with the Alliance Center of Tel Aviv University, convened its 13th meeting in Israel to discuss the Iran nuclear issue, as well as the evolving situation in the Middle East and the Peace Process.
