Welcome to Bradford and the Rotary Peace Seminar for 2026

The Annual Bill Huntley Memorial Peace Seminar will be held at Bradford University on Saturday 31^st October, 2026. The Rotary Peace Fellows of Class 24 invite you to their Seminar considering:

Opportunities for Everyday Peace:

Embracing Differences, Promoting Harmony

Peace is often imagined as something distant—signed in agreements, negotiated in conference rooms, or measured through global indicators. Yet peace also lives in the ordinary choices we make every day. It is found in how we communicate with ourselves and each other, how we respond to disagreement, how we interpret differences, and how we care for our communities.

The Rotary Peace Fellows at the University of Bradford are a range of professionals with diverse backgrounds from ten countries and five continents. Rather than being separated by these differences in background, they have brought us together.

In this year's Bill Huntley Memorial Seminar, we will argue for peace as a possibility and a call to action; as a celebration and also a responsibility. It is an invitation to build peace in our daily lives, to recognize that peace is not a destination to be reached but a continuous practice to be lived and actively worked toward.

Our globally interconnected world is moving fast, and we have to adapt to this changing social environment. From physical communities to digital ones, from everyday moments to wider community connections, peace depends on seemingly small things that, in total, define the societal fabric that binds us. Through empathy, curiosity, and respect we can peacefully coexist; through everyday acts, accumulated over time, we lay the foundation for a peaceful world.

Join us in our seminar where we will explore the power of the everyday in developing peace, in our communities and in ourselves.
