Project

Protecting Chemical and Biological Weapons (CBW) – Relevant Dual-Use Materials, Equipment, and Expertise

These efforts include:

  • Providing open-source information that illuminates potential procurement, financial, and logistics networks supplying sensitive dual-use chemical and biological equipment, technology, dangerous pathogens, and/or weaponizable materials to the Russian Federation and its proxies for proliferation purposes and develop tailored, prompt, and actionable capacity-building activities;
  • Enhancing partner public and private sector capacity and coordination to help prevent illicit procurement networks, supply chains, and transshipment that may wittingly or unwittingly facilitate CBW proliferation; and
  • Providing awareness and best practices to networks, and communities of practice to protect expertise, research collaboration, explicit, and tacit knowledge from exploitation by the Russian Government for proliferation purposes.
