      As a part of BASIC’s Inclusive International Security Programme, the Emerging Voices Network (EVN) is a digital network of high-potential, next-generation leaders on nuclear issues who will inherit the responsibility of managing nuclear threats. The programme is to create an inclusive digital space in which early-career individuals from across the globe are heard on nuclear issues, and empowered to contribute to the work of the field in addressing nuclear risks. The EVN promotes collaboration, dialogue and bridge-building between next-generation leaders across the globe, and we are especially committed to helping individuals from traditionally minoritised communities to overcome institutional barriers, ensuring that nuclear fora are truly global, and that their perspectives and expertise are centred and integrated into mainstream nuclear dialogue.

This is also a response to the United Nations’ call for the emergence of global leaders from Southeast Asia. The Forum will foster peer-to-peer discussion, the exchanging of ideas, and sharing of cultures, to improve delegates’ capacity for sustainable impact across the region.
