Wed Sept 20, 6:30 -- Celebrating the UN Nuclear Weapons Ban Treaty
On 7 July 2017, 122 States voted to adopt the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons – a landmark international agreement that outlaws, categorically, the worst weapons of mass destruction and establishes a pathway to their elimination.
The treaty will open for Ratification signatures at UN Headquarters in New York on September 20 2017. The treaty will enter into legal force once 50 nations have signed and ratified it.
Come celebrate this historic occasion!
