The World Federation of Scientific Workers (WFSW) is an international federation of scientific associations. It is an NGO in official partnership with Unesco. Its goal is to be involved internationally in all aspects of the role of science, the rights and duties of scientists and their social responsibility. According to some opinions, it was a Cold War-era communist front.[1][2] The group was said to be composed by a majority of scientists who supported communism,[1] though it, was not explicitly an admission criterion in the direct sense. The federation opposed nuclear tests conducted by any states.[3]
