"April 2015". SIP1506 This policy paper addresses verification, one of the enduring and fundamental challenges in the field of biological arms control and non-proliferation. Verification is a qualitatively different and more difficult matter for the Biological Weapons Convention (BWC) than for other regimes, and therefore requires a different approach. Centred on the premise that trust is enhanced through openness, and building on recent compliance initiatives in the BWC, this paper presents a new vision for strengthening the treaty. The EU Non-Proliferation Consortium is a network of foreign policy institutions and research centres from across the EU engaged in political and security-related dialogue and discussion of measures to combat the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction (WMD) and their delivery systems. The Consortium is managed jointly by SIPRI and three other institutes, in close cooperation with the representative of the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy. The three institutes are the Fondation pour la recherche stratégique in Paris, the Peace Research Institute in Frankfurt (HSFK/PRIF), and the International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS) in London.
