Our 5^th installment of the Living Peace Series occured on May 2, 2012 with Her Majesty Queen Noor of Jordan. 

Queen Noor is an outspoken voice on issues of global exchange and understanding. An international public servant, her peace-building advocacy focuses on the promotion of conflict prevention, resolution and recovery on national, global and local levels. By integrating the topics of gender, poverty and socio-economic diversity, she seeks overcoming separateness and the idea of “other.”

The discussion was moderated by 2011-12 UC Irvine XIV Dalai Lama Scholar Armaan Ahmed Rowther preceded by a special welcome from UCI Chancellor Michael V. Drake and Center for Living Peace founder Kelly Thornton Smith.
