Jean-Marie’s insightful lecture explored how societal changes, globalisation, technology and power dynamics are shaping the landscape of conflict and peace. How our world is more connected yet more fragmented than ever before. How the relentless pursuit of wealth is breaking society as we become a harsh world of winners and losers that celebrate only success. And how his hope for peace ultimately comes from embracing diversity and human values.
The lecture was followed by a seminar with students from across the University discussing Professor Guéhenno’s lecture, encouraging frank and open discussion.
