UWC Red Cross Nordic students take the lead at Nobel peace conference

8 September 2024

UWC Red Cross Nordic's (UWC RCN) involvement in this year’s Nobel Peace festival and conference in Oslo underscored the importance of youth engagement in global peace efforts. The conference, which celebrated last year’s Nobel Peace Prize winner, Narges Mohammadi, provided a vital platform for students to connect with influential figures from civil society, politics and NGOs. Through their participation in discussions, UWC RCN students showcased the transformative power of education in fostering dialogue and understanding.

Their contributions not only highlighted the UWC movement’s commitment to peace and human rights but also inspired attendees to consider the critical role of the next generation in building a more just world.
