Overview and metadata sections

The Committee for World Development and World Disarmament was established in 1950 as a non-political, non-partisan, educational organization to provide a forum for information about world disarmament and world economic development. It was first initiated by the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom (U.S. Section), as a project of the Jane Addams Peace Association; headquartered in New York, N.Y. The CWDWD ceased operations in 1970.

The collection includes the administrative records of the Committee for World Development and World Disarmament-reports, meeting minutes, correspondence, programs, financial, and reference files on local groups.

This collection is unprocessed and remains in the order in which it was donated.

The Swarthmore College Peace Collection is the official repository for these papers/records.

Gift of Doris Shamlaffer, 1998 [Acc.98A-006].
