Construction of a New Centre for Chemistry and Technology for the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons

This project will ensure that the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) remains well-equipped to prevent, detect and respond to all manner of chemical weapons threats through upgrades from its existing chemical laboratory to a new Centre for Chemistry and Technology. The new Centre will enable the OPCW to keep pace with current threats and remain fit for purpose ahead of future threats, by augmenting analytical and training capabilities, enhancing the capability to test, evaluate, and deploy equipment, and developing capacities to engage in research activities. Additionally, it will support increased verification research and capacity-building activities to assist State Parties.
