Community Drinks: Peace & Justice Beyond the Bubble
17 February @ 17:00 - 19:00
What if your next game-changing connection is just a drink away?
Join us for Community Drinks to wind down around a glass, make new connections, and get inspired by the spotlights of the evening. Hosted at The Hague Humanity Hub, this is the place for you to get away from your busy schedule and enjoy after-hours with purposeful conversations.
What can you expect?
Come to the Hub on Tuesday, February 17th, between 17:00 and 19:00, for a drink (or two) and meet professionals working on making peace and justice more accessible for everyone.
The Hague is both the International City of Peace & Justice and a city where neighbourhoods can be socio-economically and culturally divided. While hundreds of institutions work on peace, justice, human rights, and security, the field can often feel closed-off, technical, elite, or geographically distant from the lived realities of many residents.
This edition of Community Drinks takes place right before the municipal elections, making it a timely moment to reflect on who feels included in the city’s peace and justice ecosystem, and who does not.
Who are the speakers?
The Haagse Helpers is a community of volunteers who are building a socially connected city. Young people help fellow citizens, inspire each other, and flourish themselves. The Haagse Helpers pay attention to raising awareness among young people to contribute in and to the city. In addition to doing volunteer work, we have fixed monthly activities, and we also offer workshops and training to volunteers to strengthen the community’s feelings even more.
Leiden University’s Campus The Hague is the home to teaching and research focused on international law, governance, urban issues, global affairs, and health—the series brings together academics, students, practitioners, and citizens to explore inclusive approaches to building peaceful societies. Leiden University will be represented by Maja Vodopivec, Senior University Lecturer at Leiden University College. Drawing on her background in post-war Bosnia and Herzegovina, her PhD research in Tokyo, and her teaching in peace and conflict studies, Maja co-founded Fireside Peace Chats to counter increasing securitization in academic discourse and reconnect discussions of peace with lived realities in the world’s capital of peace and justice.
Who is it for?
If you are interested in connecting with people and their work towards a more peaceful, just and sustainable world, this event is for you. Whatever your role or sector, join Community Drinks to relax, exchange perspectives, and connect with this vibrant community committed to making the world more peaceful, just and sustainable, one conversation at a time.
More information about the speakers to be shared shortly.
