On August 10, 2022, the Nuclear Age Peace Foundation, along with the Permament Missions to the UN of Kazakhstan and Kiribati, our youth initiative Reverse the Trend and our partners at the Marshallese Educational Initiative, and with financial support from the Prospect Hill Foundation, conducted a side event at the NPT Review Conference. The event focused on the twin existential crises of nuclear weapons and climate change and featured remarks by the Permament Representatives, Ambassador Teburoro Tito of Kiribati Ambassador Magzhan Ilyassov of Kazakhstan. Benetick Kabua Maddison from the Marshallese Educational Initiative and Alicia Sanders-Zakre from ICAN also participated in the panel, moderated by Christian N. Ciobanu, our Policy and Advocacy Coordinator. The event was well attended and generated excellent discussions and engagement from those in attendance. We are proud of all of the work that Christian and our interns did to make this event possible.
