Digital Story: Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW)
On the occasion of the entry into force of the UN Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW) on 22 January 2021, SGI produced two educational tools to inform the public about the significance of this milestone. The treaty was adopted in July 2017 at the United Nations Headquarters. It is the first international law that comprehensively prohibits all activities related to nuclear weapons.
Produced in cooperation with the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (ICAN), this digital story provides a brief introduction to the TPNW and its significance. You can also download the slides in PDF in English and Japanese, or watch the slides in a video format.
