Alva Myrdal Centre for Nuclear Disarmament (AMC) was established in 2021 at Uppsala University, Sweden, to provide research, teaching and policy support on nuclear disarmament. AMC studies the whole process in which nuclear disarmament occurs; i.e. preconditions and hurdles, negotiations and decision-making, and implementation and verification. AMC combines insights from different disciplines such as peace and conflict research, applied nuclear physics, and international law. AMC disseminates knowledge of nuclear disarmament through university courses and by hosting conferences and workshops. AMC raises public awareness about nuclear disarmament and contributes to the public debate on the challenges of disarmament work.
