REPORTS
Assessing the G8 Global Partnership:
From Kananaskis to St. Petersburg
PDF Format
A report released July 2006.
This report examines the progress made to
date by the G8 Global Partnership Against the Spread of Weapons and
Materials of Mass Destruction in securing and reducing the WMD complex,
weapons, and materials in Russia and elsewhere. At the 2002 G8 Summit in
Kananaskis, Canada, world leaders announced their commitment of $20
billion over 10 years to be dedicated to preventing catastrophic terrorism
and the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction. Four years later,
the G8 Partnership countries have pledged approximately $17.5 billion to
this work, but it has not received the sustained attention and effort
needed to reduce these dangers. The report assesses that while the G8
leaders have given important rhetorical priority to the work of securing
WMD stocks, progress to date does not yet reflect the necessary urgency of
the threat of WMD terrorism. The report gives recommendations for how the
Global Partnership countries can move more quickly to ensure that funds
are reducing the most urgent threats of securing nuclear and biological
materials.
Protecting against the
Spread of Nuclear, Biological, and Chemical Weapons
An Action Agenda
for the Global Partnership
A four-volume report released
January 2003.
An international consortium of
research institutions has collaborated to assess global efforts to account
for, secure, and dismantle nuclear, biological, and chemical weapons and
materials in this four-volume report. The first volume, "An Action
Agenda", makes actionable recommendations for moving the G8 Global
Partnership from financial promises to implemented projects.
