The year 2025 marks 80 years since the atomic bombings of the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, where approximately 200 000 people lost their lives. Today, the nuclear threat is higher than it has been in decades, and global nuclear arsenals are once again expanding. The world is facing serious challenges related to the breakdown of arms control frameworks, greater risks of proliferation and increasing threats of nuclear use.
How can we ensure that another Hiroshima or Nagasaki never happens again? What lessons can we draw from the past, and how do they relate to the current nuclear policy debate in Sweden?
The Alva Myrdal Centre for Nuclear Disarmament, Swedish Physicians Against Nuclear Weapons and SIPRI are jointly hosting a discussion on these questions.
The event is for invited participants only.
Date: Monday, 1 December, 15:00-16:30 CET.
*The discussion is followed by a reception at 16:30.
Location: Karolina Widerströmsalen, Svenska Läkaresällskapet
Klara Östra Kyrkogata 10, 101 35 Stockholm
