Unlike the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty and the Chemical Weapons Convention, the Biological Weapons Convention (BWC) has no mechanism to ensure compliance and verification.
Given the dramatic advances in the life sciences over the past decade, the international community urgently needs to discuss strengthening the BWC.
Join the New America Foundation and Global Green USA as Piers Millett, one of the three experts from the BWC Implementation Support Union in Geneva, and Paul Walker, president of Global Green USA, discuss how best to combat bioterrorism and the spread of bioweapons.
