Two-day conference organized by CBWNet

CBWNet logo: "CBWNET. Strengthening the norms against chemical and biological weapons"

Banning Chemical and Biological Weapons (CBW) is pivotal to inter­national dis­armament and security architecture, but how can regimes overcome current issues and strengthen themselves without weakening the taboo against or falling back upon CBW?

The conference “Chemical and Biological Weapons: The Intercon­nectivity of Norms” hosted by CBWNet seeks to understand which normative regimes may consider usage of CBW, focuses on how different norms interact with one another to achieve certain decisions, and which levels of norms specifically come into play.

 

When: 23 Oct, 12:00 – 24 Oct, 18:00

Where: Otto-Behaghel-Straße 12, 35394 Gießen, Germany
