REGIONS

I have worked in two countries intensively: in India (within development work in the 1960s and as a researcher mainly in the 1980s and as of 2012 - 2016) and in the Democratic Peoples' Republic of Korea (North Korea) (in a UNDP sponsored project on arms capacity building in arms control). I visited Pyongyang first in 1991 and subsequently on four other occasions between 2002 and 2006.
