The Treaty for Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW) is a critically important vehicle in the struggle to prevent nuclear war and to create a nuclear weapons-free world.
The Second Meeting of States Parties to the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (2MSP) will be held at the United Nations New York Headquarters on November 27 to December 1. Our office, in collaboration with international peace and disarmament organizations, is preparing a series of special activities to support civil society efforts to push Member States to strengthen the TPNW’s implementation, making sure that the perspectives of women, LGBTQ+ people, BIPOC, and other marginalized communities are included in the discussions and decision-making processes.
