Excerpt: "From 1st to 4th June 2022, the European Peace Research Association (EuPRA) held its biannual conference in Tampere, Finland. Titled ‘Empowering Peace: The Role of Civil Society in Peacebuilding and Conflict Transformation’, there was abundant space to explore bottom-up peace dynamics and, significantly, critical peace and resistance studies and practices. In the past few years, EuPRA initiated a concerted effort to reorient towards these fields—not least with the agreement to adopt the Journal of Resistance Studies as its association journal."
