Bureau of International Security-Nonproliferation

Description

CTR's Chemical Security Program (CSP) partners with law enforcement, government, academic, and industrial communities in the Middle East, Eastern Europe, Africa, and South and Southeast Asia to strengthen their ability to prevent, detect, and mitigate chemical attacks and the proliferation of weaponizable chemicals. CSP secures and prevents the transfer of chemical weapons-related assets (such as chemicals, equipment, technologies, expertise, and infrastructure) to terrorist networks and proliferator states that may conduct chemical attacks. CSP also sponsors efforts to identify and address chemical security vulnerabilities and to detect and investigate early warning signs of chemical weapon (CW) production and attack planning. CSP focuses its resources in countries where non-state actors and proliferator states have demonstrated an ability or interest in developing or using chemical weapons and acquiring relevant materials and expertise. CSP values the use of innovative strategies and novel tools to adapt and address top chemical weapon threats.
