Activities of the World meteorological organization related to disarmament

WMO is not directly involved in questions of disarmament. Some of the activities of the Organization, however, have some relevance to article III of the Convention on the Prohibition of Military or Any Other Hostile Use of Environmental Modification Techniques (General Assembly resolution 31/72, annex) and the understandings of the Conference of the Committee on Disarmament relating thereto. A brief review of the major WMO programmes concerned and of the relevant activities in 1987 is given in the present note.
