Why do we need peacebuilding in the Pacific region and in Timor Leste, and what is the role of civil society?

Join Peacifica at this evening forum, presenting two of the region’s peacebuilding leaders to discuss the threats to peace in our region, and what civil society organisations are doing. The event will conclude by discussing how Australian organisations can support their counterparts in the region.

Presenters:

  • Adi Vasulevu, Executive Director of Transcend Oceania
  • Luis da Costa Ximenes, Executive Direction of Belun, Timor Leste

After brief presentations from the speakers there will be ample time for discussion and questions from the audience.

Light refreshments will be available. The event is free to attend – please register for catering purposes.
