Nonproliferation Policy Education Center

The Nonproliferation Policy Education Center (NPEC) is a not-for-profit organization that is based in Washington, D.C., and was founded in 1994 to promote a better understanding of strategic weapons proliferation issues among policymakers, scholars and the media. It has come under scrutiny for its funding and scientifically unsound basis for its works.
