In this talk, Lena explores the tools that each one of us has in order to put an end to war, strife, and conflict.
Over the 19 years of her career at Search for Common Ground, she has trained hundreds of journalists, artists and peacebuilders on all continents, and has innovated creative approaches to building peace, including reality TV, participatory theater, mobile cinema and radio game shows. While heading Search’s program in the DR Congo, Lena pioneered work with the Congolese army and police, contributing to a reduction in crimes against civilians. While in Burundi, she produced an award-winning documentary about Burundi’s “Heroes’.
