Trilateral India-China-Pakistan Strategic Dialogue: Towards a Stable Nuclear Order in Asia

The IPCS, with support from the Nuclear Threat Initiative, held its second trilateral dialogue between India, China and Pakistan in Fudan University, Shanghai on 8-9 August 2009.

This is the first time, even at Track II level that India, China, and Pakistan met to discuss substantive issues relating to a stable nuclear order in Asia including the possibilities of nuclear weapons elimination. In continuation with the path breaking trilateral dialogue first held in Colombo, Sri Lanka, in December 2008, experts from the three countries continued their deliberations in Shanghai.

The conference participants included prominent strategists, military persons, policymakers and academicians from India, China and Pakistan.

Nuclear Security Programme (NSP)

Since its inception, the IPCS has been working on various issues related to disarmament, especially Nuclear Disarmament. We are the only research institute in South Asia that focuses on all aspects of Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD), including  Chemical, Biological and Radiological weapons. We have undertaken numerous projects, both on an individual and collaborative basis, on the issue of WMDs.

Extending this work further, the IPCS is now partnering with the Nuclear Security Project of the Nuclear Threat Initiative (NTI), working towards global nuclear security. Click here for more

 
Indo-Pak Conflict Resolution and Peace Building

Many initiatives on peace and confidence building in the subcontinent have been held hostage to events in Kashmir valley. It is imperative to keep the dialogue process open, so as to reach an understanding on resolution of various conflicts between India and Pakistan.

This project aims to facilitate a dialogue process on major bilateral issues and keeping official channels informed, with an objective to formulate areas of common action and policies. A key objective of this project is also to build a core group of concerned senior experts to address these issues of mutual concern and suggest feasible alternative resolution mechanisms. This project is supported by the Ploughshares Foundation.
