Join WPSR and Ploughshares Fund for Peace Through Prevention, an annual nuclear policy conference, happening on Thursday, October 19 from 3-5pm PT. Because of Washington State’s unique history of nuclear production and mining—and proximity to the third-largest nuclear weapons arsenal in the world—we are eager to share stories from local advocates who are working to change international nuclear weapons policy for the better.
And the program will include special guest speakers’ assessments of the global nuclear landscape.
