30 years ago, the world was still testing nuclear weapons: more than 2,000 of them since 1945, underground, beneath the ocean and high in the sky. Then the international community set out to end it: a Treaty, and a system to prove it was being kept. It’s worked: fewer than a dozen declared tests since. The Road to Zero tells that story.

One Treaty. One Goal. Zero Tests. 30 years ago, States came together with a shared ambition: to end nuclear test explosions.

This Tuesday in Vienna, #CTBTO Executive Secretary @DrRobFloyd marked the 30th anniversary of the #CTBT alongside @MFA_Austria Minister @BMeinl, Filip Worotynski representing Mayor @BgmLudwig of @stadt_wien and @iaeaorg’s Director General @rafaelmgrossi at the Rathaus, at an event generously supported by 🇦🇺, 🇦🇹 and 🇰🇿.

The message is clear: the Treaty remains a cornerstone of the global non-proliferation and disarmament architecture, and its mission is more urgent and relevant than ever.
