About
The Nuclear Threat Initiative protects lives, the environment and our quality of life now and for future generations.
Every day, we work to prevent catastrophic attacks with weapons of mass destruction and disruption—nuclear, biological, radiological, chemical and cyber.
How We Make an Impact
NTI designs innovative threat-reduction projects that show governments the way and build momentum and support for action.
We work with presidents and prime ministers, scientists and technicians, educators and students, and people from around the world. We collaborate with partners worldwide. And we use our voice to raise awareness and advocate for creative solutions.
Your support today helps a build a safer world.
