Peace Generation have an exciting new opportunity for university students interested in Hong Kong social, political and cultural issues. This is taking place in June and July 2021, and the deadline for applications is 23 May 2021. See key info below and follow this link to the webpage:

"Re-examine and Rethink Hong Kong through a Peace Lens

Significant changes resulting from COVID plus political and constitutional makeover are sweeping through the territory.

In tumultuous times like this, how do we make sense of values like freedom, justice and democracy? How do we recover hope and a sense of direction? What can we do to mend the divides in society and reinstate trust in one another?

The Peace Fellowship invites young people to examine these questions through the peace lens and to draw lessons from other places that have experienced significant social unrest and political changes.

This second cohort of Peace Fellows will first explore the possibilities of peace in a workshop setting, and then work in teams to identify opportunities and formulate plans that will turn into peace actions in the Peace Lab.
