Expertise Support to Promote Nuclear Security-Related Legal Framework

This project provides legislative support from the Canadian Department of Justice to assist the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) Member States with implementing nuclear security-related legal frameworks. Project activity includes providing subject matter expertise and guidance at international workshops and meetings organized by the UNODC. This would assist with their efforts to promote the universal implementation of nuclear security-related legal frameworks.

The expected outcome of this project includes a strengthened capacity of judicial officials in Member States to ratify and accede to the legal conventions that govern nuclear security.
