Cross-Disciplinary Conference
Nuclear weapons have once again moved to the forefront of global concern. This resurgence underscores the urgent need to deepen our understanding of the conditions necessary for nuclear risk reduction, non-proliferation and disarmament. These challenges can only be tackled through concerted effort from a wide array of disciplines.
In response to this pressing need, the Alva Myrdal Centre hosts an annual Cross-Disciplinary Conference in Uppsala, Sweden. The conference serves as a platform for sharing and discussing research, ideas, and experiences related to nuclear disarmament. It brings together insights from the social sciences, natural sciences, and other academic fields, along with perspectives from practical experience. Alongside academic panels, we encourage activities designed to foster dialogue and collaboration among scholars, practitioners, civil society, and the interested public.
- Network with academics, practitioners and others interested in nuclear disarmament;
- Learn about the latest research in the field of nuclear disarmament;
- Influence the future of nuclear disarmament research and policy by presenting your own work or by contributing with your knowledge and perspectives to enhance the research presented.
The next AMC Conference will take place on 9–10 June 2026.
The call for papers will open in october 2025.
