Carlos Umaña

From activism to the Nobel Prize

Venue: Universidad Católica de Santa María - Instituto Confucio
Carlos Umaña (Costa Rica) received the Nobel Peace Prize in 2017, together with the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (ICAN), for raising “awareness about the humanitarian consequences of any use of nuclear weapons and for their efforts to achieve a prohibition on such weapons”. In this conversation with Pablo Cateriano, Umaña will talk about environmentalism and the need to eradicate nuclear weapons from the world, as well as his work as a scientist and activist.
