The Matsunaga Institute for Peace and the William S. Richardson School of Law will celebrate International Day of Peace and Constitution Day with a panel discussion on climate justice and positive peacebuilding.
East-West Center Research Fellow Dr. Victoria Keener will participate as part of the panel.
The Story:
It is important that we braid the tools of climate justice and positive peacebuilding to address climate crises that are triggering violence and injustice. Climate change exacerbates the harm of ethnic or racial exclusion and inequity. Flooding, water scarcity, and community health disparities increase the suffering of undersupported communities. Climate Justice can offer impetus for compassion and collaborative problem solving and recovery.

Panelists:
Camille A. Nelson, Dean and Professor, William S. Richardson School of Law
Maxine Burkett, Professor, William S. Richardson School of Law
