Description
About
NPRI was established to educate the American public through the mass media about the greatest single threat to our country's -- and indeed the world's -- public health, namely the profound medical, environmental, political and moral consequences of perpetuating nuclear weapons, power and waste. NPRI is led by Dr. Helen Caldicott, who for the last thirty-five years has lead an international campaign to end the nuclear age. Dr. Caldicott is the author of five best-selling books, most recently The New Nuclear Danger: George W. Bush's Military-Industrial Complex. She has received numerous honors and awards, including the 2003 Lannan Foundation Prize for Cultural Freedom and has been the subject of many documentary films, including the Academy Award winning, Eight Minutes to Midnight, and Helen's War, winner of the Sydney Film Festival Dendy Award for best documentary. Dr. Caldicott was the Founding President of Physicians for Social Responsibility (1978-83) and Women’s Action for Nuclear Disarmament (WAND.)
NPRI seeks to create a consensus of commitment to end the nuclear age by mounting public education campaigns, establishing a pervasive presence in the mainstream media, and by sponsoring high-profile symposia.
