Our latest Nukes of Hazard podcast is out today! The United States celebrated an incredible achievement last year: the U.S. chemical weapons stockpile is now fully dismantled. How did we get here? Does that mean we no longer face chemical threats? Are there parallels between eliminating chemical weapons and eliminating nuclear weapons? The latest episode of the Center's Nukes of Hazard podcast answers all those questions and more. https://lnkd.in/eb8eYepH
About us
The Center for Arms Control and Non-Proliferation is a Washington, D.C.-based 501(c)3 non-profit, non-partisan research organization dedicated to enhancing international peace and security in the 21st century. The Center was originally formed as the research branch of Council for a Livable World, an organization founded in 1962 by eminent nuclear physicist Leo Szilard and other scientists who pioneered the development of atomic weapons and became concerned about their use and spread. In 1980, the Center evolved into its own non-profit, independent organization. Since then, the Center has retained its focus on nuclear weapons but expanded its activities to include other present and emerging security threats. Along with its sister organization, Council for a Livable World, the Center has been at the forefront of U.S. arms control and national security policy for almost 50 years.

The latest episode of our Nukes of Hazard podcast is out! How Open-Source Intelligence Can Unlock Nuclear Secrets: Open-source intelligence (OSINT) and satellite imagery have changed the way civil organizations understand and evaluate nuclear arsenals and delivery systems — and the way governments interact with a changing balance of transparency and secrecy. Join us as we break down new developments in OSINT technology, how OSINT analysis can be used in nuclear weapons verification and the challenges ahead in regulating its use. Host and Center Communications Associate Farah Sonde speaks to Decker Eveleth, Graduate Research Assistant at the James Martin Center for Nonproliferation Studies; Marcy Fowler, Research and Analysis Manager for Open Nuclear Network; Matt Korda, Senior Research Fellow for the Nuclear Information Project at the Federation of American Scientists; and Dave Schmerler, Senior Research Associate at the James Martin Center for Nonproliferation Studies. https://lnkd.in/g33cMga7
