​                                     Inner change and transformation: Peace Education
This session will include an overview of the Peace Education Programme (PEP) and an opportunity to participate in a mini PEP session. There will be time for questions and you can discover how easy it is to implement the Peace Education Programme.

Ideas and initiatives for International Day of Peace September 2016:
This workshop will showcase examples of what individuals and organisations have done to date to celebrate the UN International Day of Peace in their towns, cities and communities. They range from one-off small scale events to ‘peace festivals’ with a programme of events that last for a week or so. There will also be the opportunity to see part of the PeaceCast.tv broadcast which was seen last year by a worldwide audience.
This interactive session will demonstrate how you can hold your own local 'Peace Day' event and/or have songs, poems and details of your local event included in this year’s Peacecast broadcast which can be beamed back live to your own organisation or community for up to a week this September.
Educational projects and the younger generation

A workshop around the innovative project that Ayrton Cable, young changemaker, developed to encourage young people to be proactive about the importance of water as a resource and the need to conserve it responsibly.

Roamer® will launch its support for the eco-campaign Water Explorers.  This is a schools-based project already working in 11 different countries.  In the workshop, pupils clean the river so the Roamer® (a salmon) can safely swim to the ocean. They will learn about the science, social, economic and political issues of water. More importantly, the task nurtures qualities which will make students global citizens and ambassadors for positive change.
​
 Attend the workshop, play with Roamer® and find out how it works.

Who am I?
In this second Roamer® workshop we look at what emotions does body language reveal? In this workshop you get to compare human and animal body language. Do robots have emotions? We think of the stereotypes, Star Treks’ Commander Data or Red Dwarfs’ Kryten as emotionless automaton. Yet, Cynthia Brezeal’s built Kismet: a robot that has emotional body language. In this challenge you program the robot to show emotions. But what is the real question behind this effort? Newton’s science destroyed the belief that Earth was the centre of the universe and humans, the centre of creation. It triggered a painful revaluation of who we think we are? Thinking computers, artificial intelligence and genetic engineering challenges many of our current answers. This workshop aims to get you asking and discussing this question.

Clean Energy

Germany has been called "the world's first major renewable energy economy”
Is it feasible/desirable for the UK to be committed to a similar goal, and
if so how will we achieve this?
