OF PROLIFERATION"

ISODARCO has been organizing residential courses on global security since 1966.
The courses are intended for people already having a professional interest in
the problems of international conflicts, or for those who would like to play a
more active and technically competent role in this field. The courses have an
interdisciplinary nature, and their subject matters extend from the technical
and scientific side of the problems to their sociological and political
implications.
