Hunger Games for Peace

Run by YouthAction NI

Hunger Games for Peace 40 Young People Youth Action NI, East Africa Youth and Lower Ormeau Youth Hub Interactive methodology to look at peacebuilding and young people's role in creating an inclusive society.

Hunger Games for Peace is an event for young people delivered by YouthAction NI as part of the Shared Agenda for Peace programme. This Shared Learning Partnership is between East Africa Youth and Lower Ormeau Youth Hub. This closed event is happening in Lower Ormeau Youth Hub. The ‘Hunger for Peace Games’ is an initiative that lends its methodology to that of the book ‘Hunger Games’ by Suzanne Collins and the subsequent film series. In this series young people (tributes) are selected to compete in an annual pageant called the ‘Hunger Games’. Within the Games the ‘tributes’ are forced to fight to the death in this widely watched spectacle. Purpose/Aim: • Using a similar methodology to the Hunger Games, our adaptation promotes more of a fight for peace than a fight to the death. • It assumes that peace is not a given or an end product in itself, but rather one that requires careful and considered attention and effort. • It supports young people and adults to reflect on their experiences, and share their insights about living in or observing divided/separate societies. Outcomes: • To meet, connect and build relationships with others from different backgrounds and communities. • To share insights about how conflict and violence impact on attitudes, choices and behaviours. • To identify practical ways to overcome conflict and to contribute to peace-building.
