Invitation to the Sol Kanee Lecture - General

by Alina Skorobohatova

********************************************************************** The Arthur V. Mauro Institute for Peace & Justice at St. Paul’s College presents The 2023 Sol Kanee Lecture on Peace and Justice Lieutenant-General Roméo Dallaire PEACE, FAITH, AND HUMANITY IN TIMES OF CRISIS Thursday, November 9, 2023, 1:30 pm Manitoba Room (MPR), University Centre, University of Manitoba [A person in a suit with a red pin Description automatically generated]In his lecture, PEACE, FAITH, AND HUMANITY IN TIMES OF CRISIS, General Dallaire will share emergent thinking on calamity in our time and offer the opportunity for the university and community to hear his reflections on faith and humanity in times of crisis. General Dallaire shares powerful first-person stories which shed light on the human condition, keeping faith in humanity, to show that even in times of crisis, we can contribute to change. Roméo Dallaire is founder of the Dallaire Institute for Children, Peace, and Security<https://www.dallaireinstitute.org/>, the global partnership with the mission to end and prevent the recruitment and use of children in violence. A celebrated advocate for human rights, General Dallaire is also a respected government and United Nations advisor and former Canadian Senator. General Dallaire was appointed Force Commander of the UN Assistance Mission for Rwanda prior to and during the 1994 genocide. General Dallaire provided the UN with information about the planned massacre, which ultimately took more than 800,000 lives; yet, permission to intervene was denied. General Dallaire, along with a small contingent of Ghanaian and Tunisian soldiers and military observers, disobeyed the command to withdraw and remained in Rwanda to fulfill their ethical obligation to protect those who sought refuge. His defiant dedication to humanity during that mission has been well-documented in films and books, including his own award-winning account: Shake Hands with the Devil: the Failure of Humanity in Rwanda<https://www.mcnallyrobinson.com/9780679311720/romeo-dallaire/shake-hands-wi…>. For more than two decades, General Dallaire has been an outspoken advocate for human rights, bringing attention to situations too-often ignored, whether the atrocities of genocide, the struggle of veterans with PTSD, or the recruitment and use of child soldiers. The lecture is free and open to the public. Please note that the lecture is not available online and can only be attended in-person. Registration is not required. The Sol Kanee Lecture Series on Peace and Justice was established in 2002 with the support of the Richardson Foundation and with additional support from the University of Manitoba's Distinguished Visiting Lecturer Program. https://umanitoba.ca/st-pauls-college/mauro-institute-peace-justice/sol-kan… [cid:0fa9c698-c4f0-421a-b189-af869eedc6e8] Dr. Dilantha Fernando, Fellow of the APS Dean of Studies, St. Paul's College, University of Manitoba Professor, Dept. of Plant Science, University of Manitoba Winnipeg, MB, CA R3T 2N2 | T: (204) 474-8577 | T: (204) 474-6072 🧪 Fernando Lab<https://home.cc.umanitoba.ca/~fernando/> | 📄 Papers<http://www.bashanfoundation.org/contributions/Fernando-D/dilanthapub.html> | 🎓Google Scholar<https://scholar.google.ca/citations?user=vUFlELUAAAAJ&hl=en>
