Joining the NERPS Conference for the first time was an unforgettable experience. As an undergraduate student surrounded by experienced professionals, I initially felt a mix of excitement and nervousness. However, being welcomed into meaningful conversations and having our work recognized made me realize that every voice, no matter how young, can contribute to the larger goal of peacebuilding. One of the most rewarding parts was meeting people from across the globe who shared the same passion for creating positive change. Hearing their stories and perspectives not only broadened my understanding but also inspired me to continue advocating for youth-led initiatives. This experience validated the hard work we put into our research and reinforced my belief that young people play a crucial role in shaping a more inclusive and sustainable future. I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to share our work, learn from others, and be part of a global community working toward peace.
Attending the NERPS Conference was an enriching experience that broadened my perspectives on peace, resilience, and sustainability. The conference brought together a diverse group of scholars, researchers, and practitioners, fostering meaningful discussions and collaborations. The well-structured sessions, insightful presentations, and engaging panel discussions provided a platform for knowledge exchange and innovative ideas. NERPS commitment to interdisciplinary research and global networking was truly inspiring. The emphasis on sustainable peace solutions, policy implications, and real-world applications made the conference highly impactful. I particularly appreciated the opportunity to interact with experts and like-minded professionals from different parts of the world, which has significantly enhanced my research outlook. I highly recommend the NERPS Conference to anyone passionate about making a positive impact in the field of peace and sustainability. It is a remarkable platform for learning, networking, and contributing to meaningful change.
