Abstract:
It is important that people is aware of the potential damages that nuclear explosions can cause not only on the land but also in the environment and health of human beings and other living species. It is also important for them know that there exists a Treaty that pretends to prohibit these practices. Sadly in Mexico most of the people is not aware of these practices of nuclear explosions and the damage that they produce in our environment. This proposal aims to promote the awareness of the CTBT as well as the labor of the CTBTO by the creation of a web application which could include information of the CTBTO and the CTBT and different resources for citizens to be aware of the importance of stopping nuclear explosions. The application may include simulators, games or whatever could make it interactive and educate citizens regarding the problematics of nuclear explosions and the CTBTO/CTBT. It is also intended to give a promotion of this application through social media like YouTube, Facebook or Instagram. This application aims to be first implemented in Mexico, but in a future it is planned to implement it globally.
