Throughout his life Salam worked to heighten awareness of Third World problems and bring about science-related progress in developing countries. The foundation of the International Centre of Theoretical Physics, where Third World scientists could contribute to current research, was a major part of this work. (See Section D.) After 1979 Salam used the prestige and fame of his Nobel Prize to bring his ideas to the attention of wider and more influential audiences. Many of Salam's arguments were published in a collection of his essays on various development topics entitled /deals and Realities. (See Section E.) Salam also worked through a number of international and United Nations organisations to create opportunities for regular scientific collaboration and interaction between Third World scientists and their northern counterparts. (See Sections G and H.) Physics is also documented in this section.

At a foundation meeting held in Trieste, Italy, in November 1983, Salam was elected president and it was decided that the Academy should be based at the International Centre for Theoretical Physics. TWAS was officially inaugurated by the Secretary- General of the United Nations, J. Perez de Cuellar, at the First General Conference on South-South Co-operation in Sciences and was granted formal NGO status by the United Nations in 1985. The Third World Academy of Sciences received the financial backing of the Italian government and the Canadian International Development Agency. It aimed to enhance the health of science in Third World nations, giving recognition and support to in developing countries and facilitating mutually beneficial collaboration between scientists. It awarded financial aid to young Third World scientists and contributed to the libraries.

It was proposed that a federation be established with its headquarters in Trieste, Italy, and with subsidiary offices in Asia, Africa, the Middle East and South America. In 1988 the Third World Network of Scientific Organisations (TWNSO), a non- governmental alliance of over 140 scientific organisations in the South was founded. It aimed to assist in building political and scientific leadership in the South and to promote development through collaboration in the fields of science and technology.

Abdus Salam NCUACS 99/4/01 SECTION L SCIENCE AND THE ARABIC AND ISLAMIC WORLD Salam and his family belonged to the Ahmadiyya sect of Islam regarded by many orthodox Muslims as heretical because of their belief that the nineteenth-century founder of the sect, Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, was the Mahdi, the rightful successor of Muhammad. Salam was deeply religious and felt strongly that science and religion were complementary rather than contradictory. He believed that the pursuit of knowledge was a spiritual exercise as well as a scientific one. He also believed that the search for understanding and scientific discovery should be used to the benefit of humanity and it was this conviction that lay behind much of his Third World development work. He encouraged the study of a common Islamic cultural heritage and argued for a return to the spirit of free enquiry that had given rise to pioneering Arabic scientists in the past. He never allowed the difficulties his religious beliefs caused in his relations with Pakistan to influence his loyalties to his homeland or the Islamic world. Salam is buried in Rabwah, Pakistan, the traditional centre of the Ahmadiyya community. The last prayers for him were attended by 35 000 people.

Abdus Salam NCUACS 99/4/01 SECTION M PAKISTAN M.1-M.478 Between 1961 and 1974 Salam acted as Chief Scientific Adviser to the President of Pakistan. After his resignation from this governmental post Salam maintained contacts made during the period of his official employment. He continued, in a less formal way, to offer advice and support to former colleagues. Despite periods of religious persecution and political upheaval which sometimes made Salam's relations with Pakistan difficult, and his numerous teaching and administrative commitments in London and Trieste, Salam's links with his homeland always remained strong. This section contains material relating to Salam's continuing involvement with Pakistan. Although it contains more recent material, it largely consists of correspondence and papers accumulated during his time as Scientific Adviser. Salam's work in particular areas of government policy and action, such as agriculture, science education and waterlogging and salinity is reflected in the arrangement of the material. His interest at that time in the development of Pakistan's nuclear resources is represented in the separate groupings of papers relating to the various organisations and institutions in Pakistan with M.1-M.290 M.415-M.432 M.433-M.478 which he had connections.

The designation appears to have been used to identify correspondence that required a more personal or individual response from Salam. It includes letters addressed to him as Director of ICTP, as an eminent scientist and as a prominent and admired Pakistani. The material comprises a large proportion of letters from young students and scientists asking Salam for help. These mostly take the form of appeals for financial assistance and requests for academic advice and are generally accompanied by curriculum vitae. Many of them are sent by people based in developing countries. In some cases Salam entered into quite lengthy correspondence with candidates whose careers he was able to advance by inviting them to attend ICTP courses or by recommending them to an appropriate institution or organisation. The section also includes correspondence relating to Salam's membership or support of many local scientific and non-scientific societies, his possible contribution to various journals, expressions of gratitude concerning contacts and acquaintances made during Salam's trips overseas and requests honoured with awards or prizes or appointed to prestigious new posts. From 1993 onwards Salam's correspondence was increasingly answered on his behalf by members of his staff. Salam's illness resulted in a considerable number of enquiries regarding his health. He for Salam's critical appraisal of scientific papers. Salam was sent many gifts and tokens of esteem period covered by the correspondence Salam consistently sent congratulations to scientists who were received many best wishes for a quick recovery from his colleagues and from those in the Third petals. Letters of thanks for these gifts form part of Salam’s ‘private’ correspondence.
