International Summer School 16 May – 29 May 2020

Costs: £1700 including all tuition, course materials, field trips and transport and accommodation in a single bedroom with breakfast.

The International Summer School is an interdisciplinary programme which provides students with an immersive experience in the areas of peacebuilding and reconciliation, exploring the history, politics, religion and culture of Northern Ireland.  An intensive two week programme, the Summer School looks at the role social justice plays in bringing about community transformation and considers how policy and practice in Northern Ireland might be useful when seeking to address political, racial, religious and economic divisions in other communities, especially within the United States of America at this time.
