The Wisconsin Project on Nuclear Arms Control is a private non-profit, non-partisan organization, which, according to its website, "carries out research and public education designed to stop the spread of nuclear weapons, chemical/biological weapons and long-range missiles. It is a private, non-profit, non-partisan foundation that operates in Washington, D.C. under the auspices of the University of Wisconsin."〔“(About Us, )" Wisconsin Project on Nuclear Arms Control. 1 October 2008.〕 The organization was founded by Emeritus Professor Gary Milhollin, who led the Wisconsin Project for twenty-five years. Valerie Lincy now serves as executive director.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.wisconsinproject.org/aboutus/staff.htm )〕 The Wisconsin Project receives financing through grants from the U.S. government and from several private foundations, the identities of which are undisclosed. ==Products== In 1995, the Wisconsin Project began publication of The Risk Report, which is now a subscription database used by governments and private companies to screen business transactions and verify the legitimacy of foreign buyers.〔 Drawing from unclassified sources, The Risk Report contains up-to-date information on sensitive products and technologies, export regulations, and organizations and individuals linked to WMD proliferation.〔“(The Risk Report ).” Wisconsin Project on Nuclear Arms Control. 1 October 2008.〕 Matthew Godsey is editor of the Risk Report.〔 The Wisconsin Project also tracks WMD proliferation through its two watchdog web sites, Iraq Watch and Iran Watch. Created in 2002, Iraq Watch detailed key Iraqi entities involved in weapons proliferation, listed their foreign suppliers, and provided access to documents describing Iraq’s past WMD-related activities.〔(Iraq Watch ). 1 October 2008.〕 The site was last updated in August 2006.〔 Iran Watch, launched in September 2004, follows the format of its successful predecessor, listing suspect Iranian organizations and sites and their foreign suppliers.〔Doughty, Megan. “(Keep Watch on Iran Nukes ).” The Capital Times 9 August 2005: 3A. 1 October 2008.〕 The site also provides original analyses and external resources relating to Iran’s WMD capabilities.
