Division 1.3.1 Project purpose

This project aims to provide capacity-development opportunities for young policymakers, scientists and academics from the Global South engaged in fields related to the BTWC. The project will build upon successful initiatives such as UNODA's Scholarship for Peace, expand upon them and ensure continuity of the efforts already undertaken. In addition, the project will also reach out virtually to them to encourage the development of young professionals' networks and capitalise on training material developed by the Union (for example e-learning tools developed by the EU Non-Proliferation and Disarmament Consortium).
