Physical Description: 15 cm of textual material
Administrative History: The Institute, known as IPACS, was formed in 1984 as an agency of Conrad Grebel College. The president of the college appointed the director and an advisory council. Research and public education undertaken by Peace and Conflict Studies (PACS, Series 23) were pursued under the organizational umbrella of IPACS.
Scope and Content: The series includes administrative records and records of special projects pursued by IPACS. Since IPACS is closely linked administratively to the PACS program, some PACS records may be found in these files and vice versa. This series includes records created before the creation of IPACS that relate to the formation of the Institute or specific projects.
Custodial History: The files were transferred to the Archives from IPACS administrators at various times.
