Social Media, Peace and Justice

Matsunaga Institute for Peace and Conflict Resolution at the University of Hawai’i at Mānoa

Location: Online

Two years after the Christchurch Call to Action Summit was initiated by New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern in response to the Christchurch mosque shootings, three academics reflect on where we are now. Join Sanjana Hattotuwa (ICT4Peace Foundation), Jeremy Simons (NCPACS), and Kalika Kastein (NCPACS) as they talk story on the role of social media on peace, violence, and its impact on our social and political systems. Feel free to bring your own questions to this open, informal discussion.
