The project "Moving Beyond Missile Defense", pursued by INESAP in collaboration with the Nuclear Age Peace Foundation, started in 2001 and aimed at developing alternatives to the emerging missile race.
An international Study Group of experts assessed the political and technical link between missile proliferation and missile defense, and developed a science-based framework for feasible and adequate responses to the missile threat. The Study Group explored and promoted innovative ideas on how the roots of the problem can be resolved by political and diplomatic initiatives, and evaluated concrete arms control and disarmament proposals (improving international missile control, limitations of ballistic missile testing, ballistic missile free zones, Zero Ballistic Missile regime, regionally extended ABM Treaty, space weapons ban).
