The Secretary-General’s Advisory Board on
Disarmament Matters met for its 51st Session in New York, from 18 to 20
February 2009. The High Representative for Disarmament Affairs, Mr.
Sergio Duarte, made opening remarks to the Board on developments in the
area of multilateral disarmament and non-proliferation since the Board’s
session in July 2008. Chaired by Dr. Carolina Hernandez of the
Philippines, during this session, the Board began discussions on the two
substantive agenda items it considered during its winter session in New
York, namely: 1) Cyber warfare and its impact on international security
and; 2) Ways to strengthen the field of verification, including the
role of the United Nations.
The Board also received briefings from three
representatives from non-governmental organizations, James Lewis from
the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) on the first
topic on their agenda. James Acton and Andreas Persbo, respectively of
the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and of VERTIC, spoke on
the issue of challenges associated with verification of total nuclear
disarmament and verification initiatives such as one currently underway
between the UK and Norwegian Governments and VERTIC. Their presentations
will be published shortly by UNODA in the Occasional Papers series.
The Secretary-General joining his Advisory Board for
part of its deliberations stated that while disarmament and
non-proliferation were urgent goals in their own right, they were also
linked inextricably to development, human rights and peace. By
achieving progress in disarmament, vast resources would be freed up to
meet other challenges. He looked forward to receiving the Board’s
recommendations on the important issues on its agenda.
Sitting also as the Board of Trustees of the United
Nations Institute on Disarmament Research (UNIDIR), the Board was
briefed by Theresa Hitchens, the new Director of UNIDIR, on its activities and approved UNIDIR’s annual report.
The Chairman of the Board submits a private report
to the Secretary-General on the work of each session. The
Secretary-General submits an annual report on the work of the Board to
the General Assembly.
