Association (UPaD) was established on the 18th of April 2012 as a student forum for the students on the Bachelor Programme in Peace and Development Studies. However, UPaD also welcomes non-programme students taking courses within the areas of either Peace and Conflict Studies or Development Studies. UPaD aims to enhance the study experience for those studying Peace and Conflict Studies and Development Studies, with its main focus on those attending the Bachelor programme. The association seeks to strengthen the bond between the students and the University, primarily the Department of Peace and Conflict Research and the Department of Government, as well as with the wider student community in Uppsala and with sectors of society related to our studies.
