We are pleased to present annual catalogues of civil society assistance programs, to highlight contributions to the BWC and States Parties, informing interested parties of civil society’s contributions to enhance biological safety and security. By providing a uniform product each year, we hope State Parties will be able to easily identify programs, experts and organizations. In addition to organization and project descriptions, the information provided in each catalogue includes points of contact for each program to facilitate stronger connections between civil society and State Parties in need of assistance.

This catalogue is compiled by Georgetown University Center for Global Health Science and Security and The Henry L. Stimson Center. 

Material contained in this catalogue will be also included in the Stimson Center’s UNSC Resolution 1540 Assistance Support Initiative (ASI) Database.
