Time: From 19:00 to 22:00

Our first official social event is here!

And it is none other than the much-anticipated Pub Quiz. The conflict-themed quiz was an enormous success among our members last year, so we are bringing back this both fun and educational event. The winning team will of course take home a small prize and the glorious title of CS Ubuntu Pub Quiz Champions this year. Sign up in teams or as individuals via the link below.

Location: Online Teams Meeting

Time: From 20:00 to 21:00

We are honored to host Professor Roger Mac Ginty, a distinguished scholar renowned for his expertise in conflict studies. Professor Mac Ginty holds the position of Professor in the School of Government and International Affairs at Durham University, serves as the Editor of the esteemed journal Peacebuilding (alongside Oliver Richmond), and is the Founder of the Everyday Peace Indicators (everydaypeaceindicators.org). He is also the Editor of the “Rethinking Political Violence” book series with Palgrave Macmillan.

During this 45-minute session, you’ll have a unique opportunity to engage in a discussion with Professor Mac Ginty focused on his article, “Everyday peace: Bottom-up and local agency in conflict-affected societies.” This article, published in Security Dialogue (Vol. 45, No. 6), promises to inspire thoughtful conversations about peace, agency, and conflict resolution.

Yousef al-Sallal (Activities Committee member) will be in charge of the technical support and Shakila Ayubi (Secretary) will moderate the meeting.
