This season of Voices of Student Success, “Preparing Gen Z for Unknown Futures,” addresses challenges in readying young people for the next chapter of their lives in the face of large-scale global changes. Encouraging students to engage with people who they disagree with can be a challenge for many in higher education. A class at the University of San Diego's Joan B. Kroc School of Peace Studies put students on a train to crisscross the nation, encouraging them to speak across differences and engage in unfamiliar places and spaces. Sarah Federman, associate professor of conflict resolution, spoke about her class and the trip, as well as some of the lessons she learned about engaging students in constructive dialogue. Hosted by Inside Higher Ed Student Success Reporter Ashley Mowreader. Read a transcript of the podcast here.

The war in Ukraine was supposed to be a short conflict. But it has been three years since Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022, killing hundreds of thousands of people and destroying huge portions of the country. Now, the Trump administration has signaled that it wants to end the war in Ukraine, but there are significant questions and deep concerns about Trump's plans for how to end the fighting.The Trump administration has signaled it wants Ukraine to pay back the U.S. for American financial support of the war. But there are fears now that the U.S. may impose a diplomatic agreement onto Ukraine that results in crushing economic debts, damaging the country, while doing little to permanently ending the conflict..Drop Site News' Murtaza Hussain is joined by Rajan Menon, an expert on Ukraine and a Senior Research Scholar at Columbia University's Saltzman Institute of War and Peace Studies.Listen above or on the Drop Site channel on Apple, Spotify, RSS, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Recorded 13th February 2025. A hybrid seminar by Prof Cathriona Russell (School of Religion, Theology and Peace Studies) as part of the Medical and Health Humanities Seminar Series. Healthcare faces comparable challenges to those of every other sector in society in the context of a changing climate. In relation to ongoing international agreements, healthcare will, for example, have to enact mitigation strategies for net-zero in its contributions to emissions, currently c.4.5% of global GHG emissions. More significantly however healthcare will need to design strategies for adaptation, aiming at resilience in ongoing provision and effectiveness in securing justice; resilience in the face of more extensive and more frequent temperature and precipitation extremes, sea level rise, changes in land-use and food production; and resilience in social conditions, in housing provision, in providing access to health care, in disease prevention, all while demographies continually shift (age and gender, poverty, and displacement)[1]. The expected continuing increase in intensity and frequency of adverse events will worsen health outcomes and health inequalities, which themselves are drivers of climate change. If healthcare contributes to the ‘good life' through its impact on health, then a key measure of its effectiveness will be its commitment to building capability e.g. for preventative medicine (A. Sen), and for ‘living with and for each other in just institutions' (P. Ricoeur).

US President Donald Trump has imposed sanctions on the International Criminal Court, accusing it of ‘baseless' actions against its ally Israel. Pat discusses this move with Emeritus Professor of Peace Studies, Bradford University Paul Rodgers.

With Donald Trump suggesting the US could take over Gaza and move its entire population out of the strip, many are asking does the US actually have any authority to do this? We discuss this with Emeritus Professor of Peace Studies at University of Bradford Prof Paul Rogers and hear plenty more reaction from the US.

Amidst the political rhetoric of getting “tough on crime,” RESTORATIVE JUSTICE AND LIVED RELIGION opens thoughtful discussions of a way to reduce crime by making communities safer and more supportive. Many of us associate “restorative justice” with international truth and reconciliation commissions spurred by human rights atrocities such as apartheid. In the US, it typically refers to small-scale efforts that divert alleged wrongdoers from the standard path of time behind bars. Studies of such initiatives affirm their value for reducing recidivism—by as much as 44 percent when compared with prison—and improving perceptions of fairness and satisfaction with the justice process among both offenders and victims. Yet, making our criminal punishment system feel “kinder and gentler” isn't enough. In RESTORATIVE JUSTICE AND LIVED RELIGION: Transforming Mass Incarceration in Chicago, Jason A. Springs, Professor of Religion, Ethics, and Peace Studies at the University of Notre Dame, shows how restorative justice has the potential to overcome the racism embedded in the American justice system's culture of retribution and violence. To make the case for restorative justice's transformative power, the author calls for a holistic approach to concrete, purposeful practices that foster moral and spiritual forms of association between people.

Recorded December 11, 2024. As humanitarian crises play out across our devices and screens, our latest ‘Behind the Headlines' panel will explore the changing mandate for humanitarianism. Bringing together world experts, including our academic partners at Boston College, we ask: what is a humanitarian mission, and how has it evolved in view of past and current global conflicts, climate catastrophe, or the shifting terms of refugee and migrant rights? And, what is the role and reach of the university in responding to the challenge of restoring social trust in humanitarian initiatives? Speakers and topics: Religious humanitarianism during the World Wars Patrick J. Houlihan, Assistant Professor of Twentieth-Century European History, TCD, will look to the past and at the legacies of faith-based humanitarianism during the World Wars, 1914-1945, to provide a lens through which to view modern global humanitarianism. The moral crisis of equality law Shreya Atrey, Associate Professor in International Human Rights Law, University of Oxford and Visiting Fellow at the Trinity Long Room Hub will ask why human rights lawyers can't seem to address rising global inequality. Social Trust and the University James F. Keenan, S.J., Vice Provost for Global Engagement & Canisius Professor, Theology Department, Boston College. Erik Owens, Director, International Studies Program; Professor of the Practice, Theology Department, Boston College. In the face of criticisms that American universities, once key structures instilling social trust, are now too elite, Keenan and Owens will argue that the university has an obligation to restore social trust, in part by ensuring that its research and teaching cross disciplinary boundaries in the service to the world's pressing problems. The humanitarian crisis in Gaza Carlo Aldrovandi, Assistant Professor in Religions, Conflict and Peace Studies, TCD, will argue that humanitarian discourses and practices are being instrumentalised to facilitate the functional reoccupation of the Gaza Strip and the permanent displacement of its population.

Paul Rogers⁠ is Emeritus Professor of Peace Studies at Bradford University and an Honorary Fellow of the Joint Service Command and Staff College (JSCSC). Paul lectures on changing drivers of international conflict with particular interests in the Middle East and paramilitary violence, and also has a long-term research interest in the interaction between socioeconomic marginalisation, climate disruption and security. Paul has written/edited 30 books and over 150 papers and book chapters. Paul is a regular broadcaster on radio and TV networks worldwide. He also writes a weekly column on international affairs for ⁠Open Democracy.⁠ In this conversation, I speak with Professor Rogers about his latest book, ⁠The Insecurity Trap⁠, which explores the intersection of ecological, economic, and military issues and their collective impact on global security. The discussion spans topics including climate breakdown, military-industrial complexes, socio-economic inequalities, and practical actions individuals can take to foster positive change. Questions covered: 1. How do ecological, economic and security issues combine to create the insecurity trap? 2. What is 'liddism', and why do Western governments prefer it to dealing with the root causes of insecurity? 3. Why is it so hard for conventional military commanders to see ecological collapse as a spur to conflict, and what do those that do suggest to address it? 4. What impact do you think the new Trump administration could have on ecological issues as a source of insecurity? 5. Could you envisage a perfect storm, so to speak, of ecological, economic and security issues coming together to create a new conflict; such as rising sea levels causing mass migration from Bangladesh into India, destabilizing the whole subcontinent and leading to a regional war with Pakistan? 6. What would be your most optimistic hope for how the intertwining threads of the insecurity trap might play out as we move past the first quarter of the 21st Century?

Jacob thought this was just the kind of work that needed to be highlighted as we approach election season, so we reached out to Ron Mock who is the director of the project to have some conversations about how we can have civil discourse with those we may not agree with. Ron is the Professor Emeritus of Political Science and Peace Studies and he was also a clerk of Newberg Friends during a tumultuous church split, so he knows a thing or two about walking through hard situations with grace.
