Colgate University Northern Ireland Trip 2026

January 4 – 17, 2026

For the last two weekend, students from Colgate University have traveling to Northern Ireland for an immersive learning experience focused on conflict, peacebuilding, and post-conflict governance. Through meetings with former combatants, policymakers, community leaders, and victims’ groups, students critically engaged with the legacies of the Troubles and the ongoing challenges of reconciliation, memory, and governance. These experiences offered powerful insights into peacebuilding in deeply divided societies.
