At a time of increasing global uncertainty, Minister Valtonen delivered the Annual Harri Holkeri Lecture, 'Peace Mediation in the Age of Geopolitical Contestation' and shared her insights with our students and staff on what Security, Diplomacy, and Sustainable Peace look like in today’s world. From Finland’s position as the world’s happiest country, to the role of young people in shaping peace, her reflections sparked a fascinating discussion. 

This is the 10th Annual Harri Holkeri Lecture that has been hosted by the Senator George J. Mitchell Centre for Global Peace, Security and Justice.
