What it funds

Official synopsis as published by the agency, formatted for readability.

While the United States continues to seek negotiations with the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) to achieve the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula, it maintains the policy that international pressure and sanctions must remain in force until the DPRK fully denuclearizes. ISN/CTR supports the pressure campaign against the DPRK by training partners to implement United Nations Security Council Resolutions (UNSCRs) constraining the DPRK’s weapons of mass destruction (WMD) proliferation, to detect and halt DPRK-linked sanctions evasion activities, and to impede the DPRK’s material and financial activities that fund the development of WMD and related delivery systems. ISN/CTR achieves this mission through capacity-building programs, open-source research, and other specialized efforts, all of which help countries detect and shut down financial and material flows to the DPRK.
