Centre for Non-Proliferation Studies

The Centre for Non-Proliferation Studies (CNS) is a research organization that focuses on preventing the spread of nuclear, chemical, and biological weapons. It analyzes international security threats, provides policy advice, and promotes arms control efforts. Located within the Middlebury Institute of International Studies at Monterey, CNS works with governments, experts, and organizations worldwide to promote safe non-proliferation practices, enhance security, and support efforts to reduce the risks of weapons of mass destruction. Its goal is to contribute to a safer, more stable global environment by informing and guiding effective non-proliferation policies.
