UCS Summer Symposium

20th Anniversary Special Feature

UCS helps to train international scientists working on arms control and nuclear weapons issues so that they are better able to participate in a public debate and influence government policies in their home countries. Through its efforts, UCS is building an international community of technical arms control experts who can work together to develop new arms control initiatives. 

Participants from the 2004 Summer Symposium in Beijing

The Union of Concerned Scientists brings together young scientists from around the world each summer to share ideas and foster an international community united around the ideas of arms control and nuclear non-proliferation.
