BASIC’s Emerging Voices Network (EVN) is hosting a launch event for its anthology on ‘Strengthening the Humanitarian Impacts of Nuclear Weapons Agenda within the NPT: Early Career Recommendations and Youth Perspectives’.
Register here to join us on Tuesday 25th June from 14:00 – 15:00 BST/UK Time.
In October 2023, with generous support from the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the EVN launched a policy cycle on the Humanitarian Impacts of Nuclear Weapons (HINW) in the context of the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) and efforts to strengthen it.
As part of this policy cycle, five EVN Working Groups (made up of early career and young experts in the nuclear policy field) focused on the following key areas of strengthening the HINW agenda within the NPT:
- Engaging the P5
- The Role of Civil Society
- Nuclear Education and Knowledge
- Nuclear Safety and Security
- Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
In this event, the Working Group Chairs will present an overview of their research and policy papers, including policy recommendations for the international community to consider and take forward.
