Public Talk and Introduction to the Merseyside CND Archives held at Liverpool Hope University, organised by the Merseyside Historical Assoc.
About this Event

The event will be held at the LJMU Student Life Building in room 206.

Liverpool Hope University houses the archives for the Formby and Merseyside Branches of the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND). At this interesting event, Liverpool Hope history specialists Karen Backhouse, Fiona Hair, and Rosie Germain will talk through and showcase some items from the archive.

A keynote address will be provided by a nuclear history specialist at the University of Liverpool, Dr Jonathan Hogg; members of Merseyside CND will discuss their experiences; and we will close the event with a showing of artwork by Liverpool Hope PhD student Annabel Little.

This event will consider a critical part of Merseyside’s past and present, and we hope it will be of interest to the public in Merseyside and beyond.

This event may also be particularly useful for undergraduate, master's, or graduate students who are considering their dissertation topics, archives to use, or areas connected to the CND in their studies more generally.

We look forward to seeing you there!
