The meaning of 829 steps refers to the August 29 - a symbol of determination to reject nuclear testings:
- on 29 August 1949 Soviet Union conducted its first nuclear test at Semipalatinsk Test Site
- on 29 August 1991 Kazakhstan closed this site, a place of 456 nuclear explosions
829 steps. One shared message: a world free of nuclear weapon test explosions. Executive Secretary @DrRobFloyd walked 829 steps for #StepUp4Disarmament, in partnership with @UNODA and the Permanent Mission of Kazakhstan, and joined by Permanent Representatives, the international community and CTBTO colleagues. 829 for 29 August, the day the Semipalatinsk test site closed in 1991. Each step a reminder of the devastating legacy of nuclear testing, and of the commitment to end it. #IDANT
