Join British Pugwash

Membership is open to everyone in the UK qualified by experience or inclination to contribute to, or support the work of, British Pugwash. A good number of our members are scientists, including many Fellows of the Royal Society, and engineers; but the participation of individuals from other backgrounds is valued.

We particularly welcome participation from students and young researchers.

Our members have a wide range of interests: in controlling weapons of mass destruction, the militarisation of space, emerging technologies, international peace, climate science, and the ethical responsibilities of scientists.
