Welcome to the youth conference Practitioners of Peace!

A Youth Mini-Conference will be held at Kistufell from 10 - 11 August.

Youth between the ages of 15 to 30 are invited to join the first of our mini conference in Kistufell from Saturday 10 August to Sunday 11 August.

The conference material takes us through a diverse set of engaging topics that help us to reflect about the world we live in, and our contribution to it. It inspires us to see our lives, no matter how imperfect, as a valuable source of light for those around us. The program consists of group reflections and discussions, art projects, collaborative games and music.

Parts of the program might be in mixed (age) groups and others in groups according to age, depending on those attending.

This mini-conference is the first in a number of mini-conferences to be held here in Iceland and is based on the conference which took place in Staffordshire in the UK. Two Icelandic youth were there and will lead the discussions here at home, with the help of others. This is a wonderful opportunity for youth of all backgrounds and convictions to come together and reflect on the world we live in and our contribution to it.
