Never Again
Never Again, an international student network, was founded at the Institute for International Mediation and Conflict Resolution's 2001 Symposium at The Hague. Never Again created a collaborative international partnership between students from around the world. Never Again aims to alert the international community to both the causes and effects of genocide and facilitate the exchange of ideas between young people – those who have lived through genocide and those who wish to learn from them. We are students from institutions including: University College London (UK), National University of Rwanda (Butare), Harvard University (USA), London School of Economics and Political Science (UK), School of Oriental and African Studies (UK), McGill University (Canada), Northwestern University (USA), and New York University (USA).
Objectives
Never Again aims to provoke ideas and action for preventing conflict through raising awareness about past conflicts; creating spaces for student initiatives which search for alternatives to conflict and work for peace.
