BASIC
British American Security Information Council


Since 1987, BASIC has worked as an independent research and advocacy organization. Our research is respected and trusted, and widely used by many other organisations and individuals. We focus on transatlantic security and arms control issues as a means of creating a more stable and secure world. With offices, staff, advisors, governing board membership and patrons on both sides of the Atlantic, we play a unique role as a transatlantic bridge for policy makers and opinion shapers.

Speaking from Wilton Park, BASIC Executive Director Paul Ingram gives his vision of success for the May 2010 Review Conference of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).

BASIC pursues its mission by:
  • Researching and providing a critical examination of future decision points in transatlantic security policy, including: (a) arms control and disarmament policies involving nuclear and biological weapons, and other weapons of mass destruction; (b) national, regional and international security strategies including, but not limited to, peacekeeping, conflict management and prevention, and the control of terrorism; and (c) arms transfers and the international weapons trade;
  • Assisting in the development of transatlantic security policies, policy making and the assessment of policy priorities; and

  • Decoding complex defence and security material to promote public understanding and foster informed debate and creative solutions.
