Chris Hiller has been captivated with questions of justice since she was a kid. As a child, Chris felt an impulse to address injustice, engaging in social justice actions and leadership programs within her church and community. When she came to the University of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ for her undergrad, she found PACS: a place that served as a launching point for her to explore questions of justice and peace through a range of disciplines, and in a way that was very grounding for her.

“PACS opened my mind and fuelled my passion for peace work,"

Simon Palamar has always been fascinated by the world. Attending the University of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ for his undergraduate, Simon received a Joint Honours degree in PACS and History. From there he went on to receive his Masters of Global Governance at UÀ¶Ý®ÊÓƵ, and finally to Carleton University’s Norman Paterson School of International Affairs to receive his PhD.
