Part I of the 2017 Yearbook was published in April this year. It contains all the resolutions and decisions of the seventy-second session of the General Assembly. Part II is divided among the main multilateral issues under consideration throughout the year. It includes developments and trends on the issues and a convenient issue-oriented timeline, as well as short summaries, found in appendix II, of First Committee and General Assembly actions taken on resolutions and decisions.

Symbols of United Nations documents are composed of capital letters combined with figures. Hyperlinks to these documents are included in the online version of the Yearbook. Alternatively, they can be accessed, in the official languages of the United Nations, from https://documents.un.org/. Specific disarmament-related documents are also available from the disarmament reference collection at https://www.un.org/ disarmament/publications/library/.

  • Hiroshima-ICAN Academy on Nuclear Weapons and Global Security 2020
    Hiroshima-ICAN Academy on Nuclear Weapons and Global Security 2020 Hiroshima - ICAN Academy on Nuclear Weapons and Global Security 2020 --- Contents --- Program Framework Profiles of Guest Educators and Coordinators Contact Persons Program Framework Introduction: Hiroshima Prefecture and the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons ("ICAN"), the 2017 Nobel Peace Prize Laureate organization, will hold the Hiroshima-ICAN Academy on Nuclear Weapons and Global Security 2020. Through this training program, we aim to nurture global leaders to make concrete and peaceful contributions to the world. Due to the global spread of COVID-19, the Academy will be composed of two parts. Part 1 is the online learning course and webinars, and Part 2 the in-person training program to take place in Hiroshima City. The dates for Part 2 are to be confirmed after carefully examining the COVID-19 circumstances in Japan and overseas. Further information will be provided at the end of Part 1. Program Framework: The program of the Academy is designed around four themes. The first theme, “Humanitarian impact of nuclear weapons,” is a crucial component of the program, particularly given that the Academy is organized by Hiroshima Prefecture and Part 2 is physically held in Hiroshima. We believe all discussions on nuclear weapons and global security must begin here. The second theme is “Political, legal and technical aspects – nuclear weapons and global security.” Leading experts in the field will offer videos to watch and documents to read as learning materials that aim to shed light on various aspects of the theme. The third theme, “Civil society in action,” will take up a wide range of civil society efforts including education, awareness raising, and advocacy.

This is a time of nuclear threat; a time of increasing inequality, populism, nationalism, and authoritarianism; a time when a record number of people—over 68 million in 2017—have been driven from their homes; a time when artificial intelligence is on the cusp of changing our world forever.
