Description:

The Peace and Conflict Studies (PACS) Master of Arts program encompasses the analysis and resolution of social conflicts; peace research examining the structural roots of social conflicts, divisions and social inequalities; and strategies for building community and promoting social justice. This is a joint program supervised by the Joint Discipline committee consisting of faculty members from the University of Manitoba and the University of Winnipeg.
