PSYCHOLOGISTS AGAINST NUCLEAR ARMS, FOR PEACE AND ECOLOGICAL BALANCE
The association was founded in 1982 and now has 250 members in Sweden
and about 20 in Northern and Baltic countries. We always have been
working for peace and in 1992 we expanded our field of operation to
include also environmental affairs. We added 'for Peace and Ecological
Balance' to our name to emphasise this.
The Foreign Department of Sweden and the UN appreciates our professional
knowledge. Also our reports have won respect on a governmental level. At
the same time we have a political power as an NGO Non Governmental
Organisation.
Together with several other professional groups we founded Professionals
Against Nuclear Arms in the year 1982.
Our aim is to:
- increase our knowledge of the threats to humanity from nuclear arms,
arms race, war and environmental degradation in the world;
- follow the daily development internationally according to the above;
- gather and distribute the particular psychological knowledge that can
be used in peace and environmental work;
- co-operate with similar professional organisations in Sweden and with
psychologists in other countries eventually forming a movement that
decision-making politicians will be forced to consider.
The activities of the organisation are based on the ethical principles
that rules licensed psychologist in Sweden.
