The Federal Republic of Germany has been a member to the Conference on Disarmament (CD) since 1974. From that time on, the Permanent Representation has represented the German positions in this body and furthermore within the First Committee of the UN General Assembly in New York.

The Permanent Representation also represents Germany at Geneva meetings of experts and State Parties to international disarmament agreements and is engaged in an intensive dialogue with non-governmental organizations and the civil society.
