Nuclear deterrence and the NPT in the current security environment
- Light lunch will be served from 12:00
As we approach the NPT Review Conference in 2026, this event offers a unique opportunity to explore the history, challenges, and future of nuclear non-proliferation and strategic stability. Expert speakers will examine NATO’s nuclear sharing arrangements, their historical contributions to non-proliferation in Europe, and their relevance to current security dynamics. Discussions will address critical issues such as balancing non-proliferation, disarmament, and peaceful nuclear energy use amidst global tensions, as well as reconciling calls for disarmament with continued reliance on nuclear deterrence. This forum is essential for policymakers, academics, and anyone interested in understanding how the NPT has shaped security environments from the Cold War to today—and how it can foster stability in an increasingly volatile world. Join us to contribute to this important discussion ahead of PrepCom 2025 in New York. This event has been funded by NATO
