3 OPCW Mandate: A Three-Legged Stool International Cooperation Working Together for a World Free of Chemical Weapons, and Beyond OPCW Nobel Lecture
4 OPCW - international cooperation Aim : To promote the Chemical Weapons Convention Involvement with: Governments ( signatories to the CWC) UN agencies ( the UN itself over Syria ) Scientific societies ( education/advances in science ) NGOs ( specialist knowledge of CWC ) Media ( spreading message ) General public ( to support the CWC )
5 OPCW Mandate: A Three-Legged Stool International Cooperation Scientific Work Production, Monitoring, Destruction Working Together for a World Free of Chemical Weapons, and Beyond OPCW Nobel Lecture
6 OPCW scientific work In-House Specialists for inspections, verification of chemical declarations, training in protection/ decontamination Collaboration with scientific societies and industry: Exchange views about safety and security of chemicals With IUPAC 5 -yearly reviews of advances in science with relevance to the CWC. Major international conference to produce report for OPCW Scientific Advisory Board ( SAB ) SAB produces report with recommendations for CWC s 5 - yearly Review Conferences Discussions with scientific societies on how chemical weapons issues can best be discussed in chemistry curricula Funding of projects to facilitate above

12 Responsible Choices in Chemistry
13 Convergence of Chemistry and Biology The boundaries between the CWC and BTWC are becoming blurred.
14 Codes of Conduct Enforceable codes of conduct Aspirational codes of conduct
15 Chemistry International (IUPAC) Sept-Oct 2014 issue
16 Questions for Discussion! Is the Multiple Uses of Chemicals approach a sensible way to place the CWC in the broader context of the responsible use of chemicals? CW issues are remote from the experience of many students in the world. Can you think of other examples of multiple uses that could reach these or other audiences, and catalyze thinking about ethical issues in science, as well as the CWC? If success is obtained in working together for a world free of chemical weapons, what comes beyond this target for OPCW, working with partners? OPCW stemporary Working Group on Education and Outreach is meeting later this week to consider the future for OPCW seducation and outreach mandate. What would you recommend to them for the 3 rd leg of OPCW sstool, in light of the above? What partnerships should be supported?
