The Oslo Nuclear Project is designed to ensure a continued and increased cadre of experts [...] but also to pursue research and present ideas in the problematic field of nuclear weapons. It is valuable that discussions in this field should not be confined to experts from nuclear weapon states but also include researchers and expert officials from non-nuclear weapon states.
