The peace&justice café is The Hague Humanity Hub’s premier networking event series for cross-sectoral connection and collaboration for a more peaceful and just world. This event brings together peacebuilders, justice innovators, researchers, humanitarians, impact entrepreneurs, policy makers and other changemakers from The Hague and around the world.
By strengthening connections, we can come up with concrete solutions to today’s complex and urgent problems and thus increase collective impact.
As a truly hybrid event, some roundabouts will only be available to attendees joining online!
Each peace&justice Café is a themed event, however the high level conversations and exchanges of ideas are constant.
