Layout design (Arabic) for the BWC brochure

Details

Mission and objectives

The UN Office for Disarmament Affairs (UNODA) supports multilateral efforts aimed at achieving the ultimate goal of general and complete disarmament under strict and effective international control. The mandate for the programme is derived from the priorities established in relevant General Assembly resolutions and decisions in the field of disarmament, including the Final Document of the Tenth Special Session of the General Assembly, the first special session devoted to disarmament (resolution S-10/2). Weapons of mass destruction, in particular nuclear weapons, continue to be of primary concern owing to their destructive power and the threat that they pose to humanity. The Office also works to address the humanitarian impact of major conventional weapons and emerging weapon technologies, such as autonomous weapons, as these issues have received increased attention from the international community.

Context

The Geneva Branch of the Office for Disarmament Affairs provides substantive and organisational support to a wide range of multilateral disarmament agreements. In addition, UN Geneva hosts a large number of disarmament-related conferences. For more information, please refer to https://www.un.org/disarmament/disarmament-in-geneva
