Ways of working for more peaceful futures: A global health humanities roundtable

Ways of working for more peaceful futures: A global health humanities roundtable brings perspectives from the CUGH Global Health Humanities Working Group into conversation with questions of peace. Convened and introduced by Future of Peace Program Director Michelle E. Anderson, the roundtable asks what approaches and practices developed through work in global health and the health humanities might offer to those working toward less violent and more just futures.

Contributions from (in order of appearance) Nomusa Mngoma, Stefanie Theuring, Quentin Eichbaum, Rosemary J. Jolly, Chioma Ohajunwa, and Charles-Antoine Barbeau-Meunier explore equitable research relationships, critical humanism, metacognition, embodied ways of knowing, Indigenous relational approaches, and the emotional conditions of trust and solidarity. Across these different perspectives, the roundtable considers what becomes possible when we treat the ways we work, not only the outcomes we seek, as consequential to creating more peaceful futures.
