We are honored to host the Dialogue for Peace Summit, which features a highly-esteemed and nationally-recognized panel of speakers with expertise in peacemaking and restorative justice frameworks for dialoguing across differences. The panel will feature Honorable Robert Yazzie, Chief Justice Emeritus of the Navajo Nation, Honorable Justice Cheryl Fairbanks, Esq., Attorney and Tribal Court of Appeals Justice, and David Karp, Ph.D., Professor and Director of the Center for Restorative Justice at the University of San Diego. Assistant Vice Chancellor Karen Biestman will moderate the conversation to share real-life examples of these frameworks in action within higher education and beyond.
