This is the 10th anniversary of the Workshop in Applied Peacebuilding, a course within the NYU SPS Master of Science in Global Affairs program at the Center for Global Affairs. Students in the Workshop in Applied Peacebuilding are matched each spring with international peacebuilding organizations to develop and help implement field projects in many international contexts.
This year's students will be working with organizations in Colombia, Germany, Jordan, Kuwait, Iraq, Sri Lanka and Uganda. Although each affiliate organization provides professional support and mentorship to the participating students, most consultancies are voluntary and students typically raise their own funds for travel, meals and accommodations. The students often work in difficult environments where violent conflict has been a constant reality of life.
The students' projects -- which range from education and training in peacebuilding to peace research to development of media campaigns -- aim to contribute to reductions in violence and corresponding increases in peacefulness.
