Two Opportunities from Musicians Without Borders
Musicians Without Borders is offering a webinar and in-person training in 2022, both focusing on the role of musicians in supporting communities affected by conflict.
“The Sounding Peace Sessions: Music in/as Peacebuilding” takes place on March 22, launching two new reports exploring the role of music in peacebuilding, including evaluations of MWB’s work in Palestine, El Salvador, and the Western Balkans. The webinar is offered by MWB in association with the Faculty of Fine Arts and Music at The University of Melbourne, the Creative Arts Research Institute at Griffith University, and the Music Department at SOAS University of London.
