As part of the Path to Ottawa series, join the Environmental Peacebuilding Association's Arts Initiative for a series of co-learning sessions about the intersections between environmental peacebuilding, climate justice, and ecological education -- and how music can be a tool and partner in related activism.

Each session will include informal teaching, art sharing, and collaborative brainstorming-- session topics and registration links will be shared in subsequent event postings.

No prior knowledge is necessary, participants can join for just one session or the entire series, and there is no expectation of follow-up: All are welcome to join the discussion!

This virtual event will be held on July 2 at 1:00 pm EST / 7:00 pm CET.

July 2nd Session Specifics: This inaugural session of the "Peace Notes" series will focus on the ocean. We will explore issues concerning maritime environmental peacebuilding, including the Law of the Sea, controversies over deep sea minerals and mining practices, conflict-related ecological damage, and opportunities for international peace and cooperation such as the Global Ocean Treaty. Artistically, we will highlight the role of sound in underwater ecosystems, environmental education through ocean-related music-making projects, and the use of creative practice for improving land-ocean relations. Join us to learn, share, and hear some maritime music!
