Help bring One Stroke World’s interactive Art for Peace installation to Build Peace 2026! Welcome participants, explain the Peace Pledge, guide brushstrokes, and help organize materials during the three-day conference in Waterloo.
One Stroke World is presenting an interactive Art for Peace installation throughout the three-day Build Peace 2026 conference. Every year, the Build Peace conference explores emergent challenges to peace in a digital era, and peacebuilding innovations to address these challenges. It holds an interdisciplinary space to address the most pressing topics and transformative practices in peace, conflict and innovation.
This year, the conference theme is “Enabling Encounters“, and it is co-organized with the Kindred Credit Union Centre for Peace Advancement at Conrad Grebel University College and the University of Waterloo, with the support of the Balsillie School of International Affairs and the Global Centre for Pluralism.
Build Peace 2026 will take place from November 13-15 in Waterloo, Canada, co-organized with the Kindred Centre for Peace Advancement. The conference will be held at the CIGI Campus, located at 67 Erb Street West, Waterloo, Ontario.
