Responsible Nuclear Sovereignty

Our research seeks to address the key nuclear issues of global governance, responsibility, and non-proliferation.

We assess avenues for reforming and strengthening the nuclear non-proliferation regime and seek to develop new ethical approaches that can contribute to policy debates in the UK and internationally. Through this work and our partnership with the British American Security Information Council (BASIC), we hope to impact on discussions around the UK’s role in multilateral nuclear diplomacy.
