By Fay Pretty | PeaceJam UK Coordinator & Youth Team Leader
We are so excited to announce that with the support of our GlobalGiving donors, our next conference will be held at Winchester University on the 16th and 17th March 2024. Put together with the input of our Youth Team and using the feedback from our youth attendees at our PeaceJam Leeds Slam in November, our event is for young people, by young people.
Our inspirational keynote speaker will be Harshwardhansinh Zala! As a young teen, he created a drone that can detect landmines and now he runs his own organisation called Aerobotic7. He embodies the next generation of peacemakers, taking after our amazing Nobel Peace Laureate Jody Williams. We cannot wait for him to work with our youth at this conference, and connect with Jody, who will be joining virtually to talk about her work and answer questions.
Alongside our conference and our curriculum, we have a six-week social action programme that supports young people’s growth and development into young leaders. Focusing on how every person can make a difference in their community, but also how to overcome obstacles when implementing change. We would not be able to provide this continued, rounded support without you, our amazing GlobalGiving donors. Thank you.
