Just War or Just Peace?

Join for an evening of philosophical engagement with Dr Helen Durham AO, Professorial Fellow University of Melbourne and CEO of RedR Australia, and Professor Emeritus Joseph Camilleri OAM, Convener, Conversation at the Crossroads.

They'll be in dialogue with host Tim Adalin, philosopher and host of the Voicecraft podcast and Underground Philosophy.

Over a dinner, conversation, and facilitated collective reflection, this event will consider some challenging but critically important questions: How do we respond to the destructiveness of war in our time - in Gaza, Ukraine, Sudan, Myanmar? And what of the nuclear threat and the implications for climate change? Does the concept of 'just war' offer an adequate response? Are the principles that govern international humanitarian law fit for purpose?
