Agenda for a New Era of Leadership: The 2026 NTI Nuclear Security Index

Registration for the IAEA General Conference is required to attend this event.

Please join the Nuclear Threat Initiative and the United Kingdom’s Department for Energy Security and Net Zero for the release of the 2026 NTI Nuclear Security Index, Agenda for a New Era of Leadership, on the margins of the International Atomic Energy Agency General Conference.

This is a pivotal moment: the data reveal that mounting nuclear security risks are outpacing the world’s readiness to manage them. Governments need to take urgent action, but where should they focus their efforts for maximum impact? The 2026 NTI Index proposes an actionable, concrete, data-driven agenda with specific steps for 176 countries and areas to take to usher in a new era of precise, dedicated, and sustained nuclear security leadership.

Be the first to see the data, hear NTI’s expert analysis on the areas where action is most needed, and learn directly from practitioners in the countries that are leading by example.
