Global Development and youth peacebuilding with Alina Dixon

Dive into the grey areas of global development and youth peacebuilding with our long awaited guest, Alina Dixon. Alina is a PhD student at Queens University, in Kingston, Ontario. She is interested in troubling the western, liberal traditions of the dominant peacebuilding lexicon by examining how peacebuilding knowledge is constructed and maintained, and what the implications of this are for youth-led, everyday peace efforts. We talk about her new work on how the show “Derry Girls” depicts youth peacebuilding in Northern Ireland during the Troubles. We explore what youth peacebuilding looks like now and what global development research aims to uncover. Want to connect with our guest?
