About:

The BWC ISU supports the efforts of States Parties to the Biological and Toxin Weapons Convention - which ensure that biology will be used safely, securely and solely for beneficial purposes. Given the close links between chemistry and biology, the BWC ISU works increasingly closely with parallel efforts under the Chemical Weapons Convention and the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons. Together they provide a focal point for the internaitonal community to ensure that these sciences are not misused to cause deliberate harm.
