Augsburg 2019 Peace Scholars
The Peace Scholars program is a part of 8 colleges: Augsburg University, California State University, Sacramento State University, the University of Hawaii, Augustana University, Concordia College, Luther College, Pacific Lutheran University, and St. Olaf College. Selected Scholars from these colleges have the opportunity to study conflict and peace studies at the Nansen Dialogue Network in Lillehammer and The University of Oslo International Summer School in Norway.
One of our 2018 Peace Scholars, Kristian Evans, had this to say about his experience this summer: "To be able to spend time around so many brilliant peace makers from around the world forced me out of my comfort zone and made me consider issues in entirely different ways. From the ongoing conflict in Columbia to the cultural divisions in the Balkans, the Peace Scholar program gave me the opportunity to share my thoughts, absorb new knowledge and learn methods of dialogue I could not experience anywhere else."
