OxPeace Annual Conference 2026 'The Design of Peace'
Further speakers, and further application details, will be announced.
This, the eighteenth annual OxPeace Day- Conference, takes place in the 80th year since the inaugural meeting of the UN General Assembly. That meeting, held in the Methodist Centrall Hall in post-war London in January-February 1946, designed how the UN would operate to carry out its Charter, to establish peace and prevent further wars. We look back on considerable success as well as shortcomings, and we ask: where are we and the world, in this present moment marked by challenge and crisis? What should we aim for, and what resources can we call upon?
