the Global Threat Reduction Initiative (GTRI)

The Global Threat Reduction Initiative (GTRI) is a U.S.-led effort to prevent dangerous nuclear materials from falling into the wrong hands. It focuses on securing and reducing the use of vulnerable nuclear materials worldwide, especially in countries with less advanced security. By converting or removing these materials, GTRI helps reduce the risk of nuclear proliferation and potential nuclear terrorism. The program promotes international cooperation, enhances security measures, and promotes safe, peaceful uses of nuclear technology, contributing to global stability and security.
