From September 2 – 7 , 2012 the T.M.C. Asser Instituut , in partnership with the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW), will organize the third annual summer training programme in The Hague, on Disarmament and Non-Proliferation of Weapons of Mass Destruction in a changing world.

The programme aims to provide a unique insight into treaties, organizations and effective multilateral approaches in WMD disarmament and non-proliferation.

An important new element added to the summer programme is that class work will be supplemented by visits to industrial, training, and research facilities engaged in activities relevant to the programme.

The programme is designed for graduate students and professionals interested in pursuing careers in the field of disarmament and non-proliferation of WMDs.

The programme will be delivered by experienced officials of the OPCW and other international organizations together with experts in international law and related disciplines, offering participants hands-on knowledge from key professionals in the field.
