PROGRAM

On May 21, 1921 Nobel Peace Prize laureate Andrei Sakharov was born. While being one of the most important nuclear physicist of his era, he became an outspoken proponent of non-proliferation of nuclear arms, and the most prominent human rights defender in his country. His role in détente and the development of freedom of speech and self-determination in the Soviet bloc is undisputed.
In celebration of his life the month of May will be dedicated to several events in his honor.
