Project on Nuclear Issues

Founded in 2003, PONI is the premier networked community of next generation professionals prepared to meet the nuclear challenges of the future.
Microsite

PONI identifies and cultivates emerging thought leaders by building relationships, deepening understanding and sharing perspectives across the full range of nuclear issues and communities. PONI’s programs provide inclusive, diverse, and creative opportunities for emerging experts to learn about policy, technical, and operational aspects of the nuclear enterprise, develop and present new concepts and ideas, engage in thoughtful and informed debates, and opportunities to tour and visit sites across the nuclear enterprise. Whether you are new to studying nuclear weapons or in the middle of your career, PONI has opportunities for you.

Learn more about PONI’s initiatives and how to get involved.
