Latest developments

In the First Committee of the UN General Assembly in October 2023, Togo welcomed the consensual adoption of a declaration and action plan at the First Meeting of States Parties to the TPNW the year before and expressed its ‘hope that the next meeting will consolidate the achievements of this Treaty and advance the objective of the total elimination of nuclear weapons’.1 In March 2022, the Togolese chapter of the Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom convened a training workshop in the capital, Lomé, with government officials and civil society representatives to promote Togo’s ratification of the TPNW.2
