We are pleased to announce that, due to demand, we are adding more seats for our Thursday, Sept 25, Annual Meeting.
We are extending the deadline to register to this Friday, Sept 19.
We are honored to have Senator Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.) deliver our keynote. Senator Van Hollen, a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, is a leading voice for effective diplomacy to reduce and eliminate nuclear threats, and broadly for a values-based American foreign policy that protects and advances human rights around the world.
“How Effective Diplomacy Can Still Solve the Impasse Over Iran's Nuclear Program.” Panelists including former Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif will discuss the prospects and options for returning inspectors to Iran and renewing talks on a deal to curb Iran's sensitive nuclear activities.
"Off-Ramps from a Three-Way Nuclear Arms Race.
” Panelists will address how the U.S. and Russia can maintain sensible limits on their strategic arsenals and advance pragmatic disarmament diplomacy at the bilateral and multilateral level.
"The Growing Push for Action to Reduce the Nuclear Danger." Given Trump’s stated views on 'denuclearization', it is possible to renew common sense nuclear risk reduction and arms control talks. But that can only happen if we collectively raise our voices and elevate this urgent issue on the top of the crowded global political agenda. Panelists will discuss the growing consensus and need for arms control and disarmament.
Why am I getting this? You are a member, supporter, or alumni of the Arms Control Association, attended a previous annual meeting, or are an influencer on disarmament and nonproliferation issues.
