Pugwash Conferences on Science and World Affairs

Pugwash

Pugwash seeks a world free of nuclear weapons and other weapons of mass destruction. Through its long-standing tradition of “dialogue across divides” that also earned it the Nobel Peace Prize in 1995, Pugwash aims to develop and support the use of scientific, evidence-based policymaking, focusing on areas where nuclear and WMD risks are present. By facilitating track 1.5 and track II dialogues, Pugwash fosters creative discussions on ways to increase the security of all sides and promote policy development that is cooperative and forward-looking.

The Cold War International History Project

The Cold War International History Project (CWIHP) was founded in 1991 and is located at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars in Washington, D.C.

The Project supports the full and prompt release of historical materials by governments on all sides of the Cold War. By publishing an unprecedented collection of documents, initially through the CWIHP Bulletin and, since 2013, through the Wilson Center’s Digital Archive, the Project seeks to accelerate the process of integrating new sources, materials and perspectives from the former “Communist bloc” and the non-Western world more generally with the historiography of the Cold War.
