Officially, they are called the Conference on Science and World Affairs. The Declaration was created by 11 scientists, including B. Russell, A. Einstein, and Hideki Yukawa, who were concerned about the emergence of the hydrogen bomb at the height of the Cold War and the imminent threat of nuclear war.
