The purpose of this research is to analyze how international non-governmental organizations(INGOs) contributed to the 2010 Non-Proliferation Treaty(NPT) Review Conference in order to explore the role of civil society in nuclear disarmament governance. As a background case, this paper also examines the role and contribution of INGOs in the 2000 NPT Review Conference. In the case of the 2000 Review Conference, INGOs largely contributed to setting the issue of nuclear disarmament again on the agenda of international security governance. They also took part in promoting the international norm of nuclear disarmament. In addition, they played an important role in reaching a substantial agreement on nuclear disarmament among member states in the Conference by actively engaging in advocacy and lobbying activities designed to support and advertise the position of the New Agenda Coalition in favor of global nuclear disarmament. In the case of the 2010 Review Conference, INGOs drafted a Nuclear Weapons Convention as a starting point toward its conclusion, This role contributed to forming a basis on which to promote the norm of nuclear disarmament and to develop it into an international regime. They also took part in inducing member states to adopt the issue of a nuclear weapons convention as one of the key agenda in the conference and to actively negotiate with each other. Furthermore, INGOs successfully pushed member states to include the term, ‘nuclear weapons convention’ and its related content in the final document of the conference. In addition, INGOs played a role in causing member states to reach a concrete agreement on a nuclear free zone in Middle East.
