Dear Friend --


I hope you and your loved ones are doing ok in these difficult times. 

I wanted to share a bit of good news, on Tuesday afternoon in New York City, despite the lockdown of the United Nations Office for Legal Affairs, Belize ratified the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons. We’ve seen a lot of exciting progress from the Caribbean, as a result from hard work by our partner organisations in that region and from the Caribbean regional conference we organized last year. It’s exciting to see that our activities are having a concrete impact, and you can read more about Belize’s ratification here <[link removed]>.

This means that 37 states have ratified, and we’re only 13 more away from the Treaty entering into force and becoming international law.


Do you know how your country is doing? Check out our country pages <[link removed]> where you can find more information about what your country’s position on the Treaty is, recent news stories related to our work, which elected representatives and cities from your country support the ban treaty, and which ICAN partner organisations exists in that country.  

Thank you again for your continued support for our work, and we’re excited to get the next 13 states onboard. 

With best regards,

Beatrice Fihn
Executive Director 


It’s time to end nuclear weapons.
