Coventry Schools War, Peace and Reconciliation Conference

Tuesday 19 March
10am-3pm
Years 12-13

The United Nations Association Coventry Branch invites sixth formers to its War, Peace and Reconciliation conference 10am-3pm on Tuesday 19 March at University of Warwick.

In a series of workshops they will explore how the United Nations is involved in War, Peace and Reconciliation. Does the UN succeed or fail to prevent wars and restore peace? What does it do about reconciliation after conflict? Why are these questions important in the lives of young people?

The conference will be delivered by students from Coventry and Warwick Universities who have been trained as United Nations Association Ambassadors.
