Description
The risks of nuclear proliferation and nuclear use are at their highest in recent history, yet the historical agreements, norms, and frameworks for reducing nuclear dangers are eroding. With Corporation support, the University of Chicago will host the Nobel Laureate Assembly for the Prevention of Nuclear War to convene Nobel laureates and other experts to develop and endorse actionable recommendations for preventing nuclear war aimed at global leaders and policymakers. The Assembly will provide a large public platform for scientific leaders to champion responsible nuclear policies, while also inspiring and deepening global civil-society efforts to reduce nuclear dangers.
