The Changing World





	A Year with the Nuclear Police
		This BBC World Service documentary charts a critical time for the nuclear watchdog of the United Nations - the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) - as concern grows about the spread of nuclear weapons.
	PART 1	The IAEA's role to police the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty has been put under unprecedented pressure by Iran. The BBC’s Rob Broomby has had unique access over the past year to the main players in this game of international nuclear brinksmanship. From the meeting rooms of the IAEA Headquarters in Vienna to the dusty plains of Kazakhstan, he has been allowed to witness the work of the agency at a time when the stakes have never been higher.

	PART 2	The BBC’s Broomby has also has been given privileged insight into the nerve center of the IAEA's laboratories that monitor the world's nuclear facilities. He has spent considerable time with nuclear inspectors, travelling with them to the Republic of Georgia. There he discovered the reality of searching for nuclear material that has been hidden or lost and that could potentially be used in a "dirty bomb".

THE CHANGING WORLD is the sister documentary series of PRI's The World. Each week, we offer American radio listeners two in-depth documentaries from the BBC World Service that probe issues critical to our understanding of our evolving world.
