Nobel Laureate Assembly for the Prevention of Nuclear War

At a time when the risk of nuclear war is increasing, actions to prevent nuclear war are vital to humanity’s future. Coinciding with the 80th anniversary of the Trinity Test and the dawn of the nuclear age, the Assembly will gather Nobel Laureates and nuclear experts to discuss and debate current and future nuclear challenges. The assembly will produce and endorse a list of actionable recommendations for preventing nuclear war aimed at leaders and policy makers around the world.

Date

Monday, July 14 – Wednesday, July 16

The Assembly will convene the world’s foremost experts on nuclear weapons at a critical moment in global security, and is designed to produce actionable, pragmatic recommendations. The Nobel Laureates serve as a stand-in for the world’s collective conscience–by convening them alongside domain experts, the Assembly aims to directly engage with policymakers and institutions to drive meaningful change at a time of unprecedented risk of nuclear conflagration.

The Assembly will negotiate and sign a Declaration establishing a set of guiding principles to shape nuclear diplomacy in the decade ahead.
