Ripples of Peace
The Scottish Peace Platform’s understanding of peace is inspired by Professor Christine Bell’s ‘Ripples of Peace’, which expand outwards from conflict contexts into peacetime. Members of the SPP actively work on one or more circles of peacebuilding, and will be able to connect with members working in other circles

World Cafe Networking Event
To mark almost 6 months of the establishment of the Scottish Peace Platform the SPP will host a World Café networking event at Edinburgh Law School. The event will bring together members and partners working across peacebuilding, policy, academia, and civil society for open, inclusive dialogue, reflection, and exchange.
The ‘World Café’ format brings together facilitated, small-group discussions that encourage open conversation, sharing of ideas, and collective reflection through several short rounds of exchange around focused questions. It will be opportunity for members, including those implementing activities from the first Call for Proposals, to highlight their work and connect with others.
Member organisations and individuals are invited to submit their interest to highlight their work during the day through short presentation slots, table discussion, or a presentation desk/ poster.
Registration for attendance and participation through the link.
