Conference
Conflict Zones: Does the Music Stop, When the Bombs Drop?
Speakers: Outspoken (Artist / Activist), Yan Shapiro (Founder, U-Nation), more TBA
Moderator: Ruth Daniel (CEO & Artistic Director, In Place of War)
Does the music stop, when the bombs drop? How do we use music at the most challenging times we face as human beings? What is the power of music during times of conflict? Can music challenge oppressors? Can music make lasting change? We speak to some of those artists and music leaders operating in some of the most challenging situations on the planet - in places of war, colonisation and political oppression.
