There is a strong history of efforts to reduce country’s stockpiles of nuclear weapons and the technology advancements of how to verify that these agreements were upheld. In this session we will explore the history of nuclear arms control agreements: the environment at the time, terms of the agreement, the verifications systems set-up, and their impact. Following a historical discussion, we will hear from experts in the field to talk about new technologies to monitor agreements.
