NATO Science for Peace and Security

The Science for Peace and Security (SPS) "Committee is the primary NATO committee supporting practical cooperation in civil science and innovation. This new organization oversees a programme which contributes to NATO’s mission by linking science to society through projects conducted under well-established procedures. It focuses on security, environmental sustainability and other defined priorities of its Partner nations. The SPS Programme enables NATO to demonstrate its commitment to practical, visible projects with tangible output.

"The aim of the Science for Peace and Security Programme is to contribute to security, stability and solidarity among nations, by applying the best technical expertise to problem solving. Collaboration, networking and capacity-building are means used to accomplish this end. A further aim is to facilitate continued democratic growth and support economic development in NATO's Partner countries."
