Published purpose

This project aims to facilitate the provision of international expertise to a comprehensive, multi-year review by China of its control of trade in strategic goods. This review is intended to focus especially on proliferation-sensitive goods and technologies related to weapons of mass destruction, such as North Korea’s nuclear weapons program. Project activities include: (1) producing an initial report on China’s existing strategic trade control systems; (2) developing a toolkit on government-industry outreach and internal compliance programs within relevant industries; and (3) delivering a series of capacity-building workshops on government outreach to industry on strategic trade controls and compliance in China and elsewhere in Southeast Asia.
