Participants will explore theories and practices of peacemaking
with youth aged 15-29 in Halifax and Northern Ireland.

In the months leading up to the trip participants will research the history of conflict among different groups in Nova Scotia and Northern Ireland; develop tools which will lead to dialogue and conversation among groups with a history of conflict; and facilitate conversations with high school youth in Halifax

During their time in Northern Ireland, participants will spend three days at the Corrymeela Peace and Reconciliation Centre in Ballycastle, NI; visit the Walls of Derry, representatives from communities working for peaceful change in Belfast, and an integrated high school in Belfast.
