What’s Happening Now in Northern Ireland?

Please join us for a brown bag lunch with Reverend Dr. Gary Mason, Founder and Director of Rethinking Conflict.

Reverend Dr. Gary Mason founded Rethinking Conflict after spending 28 years as a clergy person in Belfast and was involved in the “Northern Irish Peace Process.” He has been and continues to be a close advisor to Protestant ex-combatants on the civilianisation efforts of paramilitaries.

Dr. Mason has also played a leading role in establishing the Skainos project which is acknowledged as the largest faith-based redevelopment project in Western Europe. The vision behind this was to develop a world class urban social justice centre, in a post-conflict society as a model of co-existence and shared space.
