Conflict is inherent in all societies and has persisted for thousands of years, leaving long-lasting economic, educational and political effects. Nothing, though, is more devastating than the impact on people.

The University of Chicago’s Pearson Institute for the Study and Resolution of Global Conflicts and The Senator George J. Mitchell Institute for Global Peace, Security and Justice at Queen’s University Belfast will convene world leaders, scholars and those who are actively working on the ground in conflict zones for Global Conflict | The Human Impact. This two-day conference will examine the lessons learned from resolved conflicts, challenges presented by current conflicts, and the tremendous negative impact on individuals and families.
