The Nuclear Weapons Inheritance Project

Welcome!

The NWIP was begun by medical students to facilitate non-confrontational exchanges with future decision-makers in different countries of the world, particularly nuclear-weapons states and their allies. The Project helps international delegations of students travel to hold dialogues with students in countries like Russia, China and the UK, as well as supporting students with resources to hold events in their own local areas, and to create new activities of their own. The work also involves training active students in dialogue technique and nuclear weapons basics.

With projects at local, national and international levels, all our activities aim to raise awareness of the very real threat of nuclear weapons, their use, and the potentially catastrophic consequences and risks.

Anyone with an interest in disarmament is welcome to join the project - everyone has valuable contributions to make! We're always looking for students to join our delegations and practice sessions. The project has an extensive set of resources at your disposal, and all it takes to be involved is the will to participate. In return you will enjoy unforgettable experiences, make strong friendships and develop a strong grasp of disarmament issues and tools useful for any work related to advocacy and conflict prevention.
