Referendums: Should they be Banned?
Description
Every conflict is different, but they also share many similar characteristics – Oliver will explore, from his hands-on experience in conflicts across the globe, how we can learn from others, who are the change - makers and how to motivate those eager to bring about a better, fairer, more peaceful world. He will examine the referendum, as a constitutional tool and whether it now works as a conflict resolution mechanism, given ‘the year of terrible referendums’ in 2016. About the Lecturer: Quintin Oliver enjoys a reputation as an international conflict resolution specialist. He runs Stratagem International, which helps organizations in fragile political environments around the world in conflict resolution and post-conflict reconstruction, building on the Northern Ireland experience.
