Flipping the Script: The Power of Nonviolent Action


"Flipping the Script: The Power of Nonviolent Action,” featured two insightful panel discussions followed by a reception. The first panel showcased Master’s students from the Workshop in Applied Peacebuilding, who shared reflections from their summer consultancies in Sierra Leone, Jordan, and Libya. Their experiences provided valuable insights into the practical challenges and successes of peacebuilding efforts in diverse contexts.

The second panel brought together activists and practitioners from Combatants for Peace, Waging Nonviolence, and policy academics, who engaged in a compelling discussion about the role of strategic nonviolent action in driving social and political change. The panelists emphasized themes of adaptability, collaboration, and resilience in peacebuilding efforts.

We extend our sincere gratitude to all participants and contributors for fostering such a rich and meaningful dialogue. This event underscored the power of nonviolent action in creating lasting peace and strengthened our collective commitment to peacebuilding efforts worldwide.
