I feel so honored and privileged to be among these super critical intellectuals. Thanks to Carleton and IDRC for the seed funding and to all senior and young scholars who presented in the webinars of the first School. Looking forward to reading all your final papers.

War does not solve problems; on the contrary, it amplifies them and inflicts deep wounds on the history of peoples, which take generations to heal. No armed victory can compensate for the pain of mothers, the fear of children, or stolen futures. May diplomacy silence the weapons!
