- 4:00 PM1h 30mInternational Day of Peace: A presentation by the Honorable Chernor Bah, Sierra Leone’s Minister of Information and Civic EducationThe Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies honors this year’s International Day of Peace with a special presentation from one of its own — The Honorable Chernor Bah (M.A. ’11), Minister of Information and Civic Education in Sierra Leone, who will also receive this year’s Distinguished Alumni Award. Each year the Kroc Institute pays heed to the International Day of Peace (IDOP), established in 1981 by the United Nations General Assembly, by way of an event or panel discussion. The Institute also honors a Notre Dame graduate in peace studies annually with the Distinguished Alumni Award — someone whose career and life exemplifies the ideas of international peacebuilding. This year, the two events will merge. Using the 2024 IDOP theme “Cultivating a Culture of Peace” as a framework, Minister Bah will speak to his professional trajectory since graduating from the University of Notre Dame with a master’s degree in international peace studies. He will also address his current ministerial work with civic education related to cultural renaissance and decolonization, and the mindset shift necessary to rediscover our sense of identity and to see each other’s humanity. Minister Bah’s talk, "Intentional National Consciousness as critical tool for longterm Peacebuilding — A Sierra Leone case study," will discuss how national consciousness, the shared sense of identity among citizens, is essential for uniting a diverse nation like Sierra Leone. By examining the historical challenges stemming from colonial legacies, which fragment our national identity and contribute to social and political instability, this lecture will explore the crucial role of constructing and socializing an intentional national consciousness in long-term peacebuilding for Sierra Leone. In his lecture, Minister Bah will demonstrate how reconstructing these narratives purposefully and in citizen voices is critical to building a cohesive and peaceful society. Drawing lessons from countries including Rwanda, Germany, South Korea, Singapore, Sweden, and the United States, strategies emerge for reconstructing Sierra Leone's national consciousness through national dialogue, civic education reform, cultural revitalization, inclusive governance, youth engagement, and international collaboration. By embracing these strategies, Sierra Leone can build a more united, peaceful, and prosperous society. Just as a chain is only as strong as its weakest link, the strength (and positive peace) of a state is based on the power of its fictional narrative and the sense of ownership and pride that the citizens carry with them in their hearts.

- 7:00 PM1hNuclear Energy: Past, Present, and Future🏆 A Sustainability Cup Dorm Competition Event as part of the 18th annual Notre Dame Energy Week 🏆As part of the 18th annual Notre Dame Energy Week, Notre Dame’s chapter of the American Nuclear Society invites the public to join a discussion about nuclear energy presented by Peter C. Burns, the Massman Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering and Earth Sciences. Professor Burns will give an overview of the current energy landscape and advocate for nuclear energy as being the safest, quickest way for society to combat climate change. Biography Peter C. Burns has focused most of his research over the past decade on the solid state and environmental chemistry of heavy metals, especially actinides including uranium, neptunium and plutonium. Much of this research is applied to nuclear waste disposal and understanding the mobility of actinides and heavy metals in the environment. The structures, compositions, stabilities, and thermochemistry of uranium compounds are studied in relation to the evolution of a geological repository for nuclear waste, as well as natural uranium deposits. Burns was formerly the Director of NDE. He earned his Ph.D. from the University of Manitoba in 1994, his M.S. in Geology from the University of Western Ontario in 1990, and his B.S., the University of New Brunswick in 1988. Vintage ND Energy shirts will be given out at this event while they last. Originally published at energy.nd.edu.
