Native American land Acknowledgement
Prepared for the City of Iowa City's Ad Hoc Truth and Reconciliation Commission and Human
Rights Commission
PURPOSE
Iowa City owes its existence to the many Indigenous Peoples who were the original stewards of this land
and who were subjected to manipulation and violence by non-native settlers, invaders, and governments
in order to make this moment possible. Acknowledgement of this truth is central to our work toward
reconciliation across all barriers of difference and injustice. Starting with a Native American Land
Acknowledgement, this Commission will bear witness to the legacies of violent displacement, migration,
and settlement that have marginalized those who were the first inhabitants of this land. We must also
address the mistreatment and exclusion that Native Americans continue to face today. The Ad Hoc Truth
and Reconciliation Commission and the Human Rights Commission encourage the community and City of
Iowa City to join us in these efforts through the use of a Native American Land Acknowledgement.
LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
To be read at all public meetings and events:
"We meet today in the community of Iowa City, which now occupies the homelands of
Native American Nations to whom we owe our commitment and dedication. The area of
Iowa City was within the homelands of the Iowa, Meskwaki, and Sauk, and because
history is complex and time goes far back beyond memory, we also acknowledge the
ancient connections of many other Indigenous Peoples here. The history of broken
treaties and forced removal that dispossessed Indigenous Peoples of their homelands
was and is an act of colonization and genocide that we can not erase. We implore the
Iowa City community to commit to understanding and addressing these injustices as we
work toward equity, restoration, and reparations."

Proposal Summary
This proposal is actually a set of five proposals from five different groups: Think Peace,
Kearns and West along with a locally -based Fact Finding Data Liaison, Three Native Partners,
and the Healing Partners Team (Banjo Knits Empowerment, Astig Planning, and Mediation
Services of Eastern Iowa). In the interest of increasing local involvement, we have recently
moved the Fact Finding Data Liaison position from Kearns and West and created a
locally -based Community Researcher/Fact Finding Data Liaison position who will work closely
with the teams, the TRC and the City. These are all being proposed together after several
months of our groups collaborating and engaging with the TRC, City Council and City staff.
We recognize that the skills and expertise of each group are interdependent and are
necessary components to continue the important work of the TRC per Iowa City Council's
Resolution No. 20-228. Please see the included budget documents and document from Think
Peace for more information about what each group will be doing.
This proposal offers a community -led framework for moving at the speed of trust and
building lasting and authentic relationships throughout the Truth and Reconciliation process.
We seek an organic process that nurtures authenticity within the community while building our
local capacity. Our teams prioritize intentional reflection and evaluation, which will provide
the TRC and community partners an opportunity to improve processes/practices and gain clarity
on the next phase or next steps.
Phased Approach
In order to co -create a framework and process that reflects intentionality, it is important to
include more local partners and to have a phased approach from which to evaluate
progress. We recognize that white culture normalizes and expects processes that are neat and
tidy, and although this is a phased approach, we recognize from the outset that there is a lot of
potential for overlap between phases that can occur and changes that will naturally arise.
We propose a Three -Phased approach that occurs at three, four, and potentially six month
intervals. We understand that the TRC is working as an ad hoc commission that is set to
dissolve on June 30th of 2023. Being mindful of this timeline, we propose a three -phased
approach with evaluative breaks that will help determine the next strategic steps. If we
begin working with the Commission in September of 2022, the second phase will end in
March/April of 2023 and provide the TRC Commission with a few months to reflect on the
findings and recommendations of this process. The third phase is an optional phase that our
team recognizes may be needed once the work of the TRC is underway. It is difficult to directly
identify the duration of each phase, and we want to acknowledge that additional time may be
necessary. We cannot presently identify what additional actions will need to be undertaken.
This third phase may also require an additional extension of the commission's timeline,
particularly as that deadline continues to near. It is our intention that the Commission will then
have what they need to provide a final recommendation(s) to the City Council.
Expectations of the City & TRC Commission Members
In order to co -create a framework and process that reflects intentionality, it is also important to
include suggested expectations of the City's involvement and support functions/tasks, as well as
for TRC members.
City of Iowa City Expectations
In order to coordinate the partner organizations in this proposal and the tasks that they are
responsible for executing in a timely fashion, we recommend the City take on the following
tasks:
• Facilitate Truth and Reconciliation Commission discussions and actions informing,
confirming, and assessing truth -telling, fact-finding and reconciliation processes
o Assist in the creation of meeting agendas, assist in keeping meetings moving
forward in a productive manner and on time.
• Coordinate operations of the four proposals alongside and informed by TRC, Think
Peace, Kearns & West, Healing Partners, and Native Partners (e.g. host regular Team
Meetings —virtual, email updates, and/or in -person);
• Co -Facilitate Strategic Doing and follow-up alongside a Healing Partner (Astig Planning)
to develop a strategic outline and tasks that guide the progress and work of the
Commission;
• Co -Create Restorative Justice Practices with Native and Healing Partners;
• Co -Facilitate Restorative Justice Practices with Native and Healing Partners;
• Facilitate the onboarding of local partners, organizations, other entities that can bring
value to the work as contractors (identified by The Team) as needed;
• Facilitate the identified local partners, organizations, contractors' initial/ongoing
engagement within the Commission's work(e.g. connecting local databases and entities
with data to fact -finding —Kearns and West);
• Coordinate logistics of identified local Truth and Reconciliation activities and events that
are informed and implemented by respective Team members (e.g. Think Peace, Native
Partners, Healing Partners, other local partners, organizations and/or contractors);
• Report progress alongside The Team during evaluation aspects of phased approach (3
months and 4 months);
• Work with The Team, City staff and leadership to further the work of the Commission as
the process unfolds.
*In the interim, the Healing/Reconciliation Partners will lead the coordination of the
organizations until the City integrates identified resources into the larger team (e.g. staff).
TRC Member Expectations
The TRC is a unique City -sanctioned commission. The charges that the TRC are responsible for
include: collecting evidence, testimonies, providing public opportunities for persons impacted by
racial injustice to share stories, create a repository for community stories, facilitate
conversations across various sectors in which People of Color experience discrimination and
injustice. In short, these types of duties are aimed at excavating and reckoning with
community -wide racial injustice and harm that is far beyond any of the other City -sanctioned
2
commissions. Furthermore, the TRC is entirely composed of BIPOC community members who
will also have to navigate personal trauma and harm throughout their tenure.
Taking into account the scope of the work ahead of the TRC, our team proposes that each
commission member model self -care and radical love for themselves and for their fellow
colleagues. We invite each commissioner to engage at the level with which they are able
throughout each of the phases, and offer some insight into the avenues that will be available to
them, such as:
• The initial education phase will offer multiple opportunities for each commissioner to
read, watch, and participate in various lectures, programs, and art projects that delve
into the history and genesis of TRCs around the world.
• Educate the public about the TRC process and its significance and universality
• Determine what areas of fact-finding are necessary to support expected findings of the
truth -telling
• The Strategic Doing session will outline an asset -based approach to generating
pathfinder projects linked to the charges of the TRC. An example of this process could
be that commissioners and attendees have the resources in the room to commit to
creating a podcast that follows the Iowa City TRC process. This would be an opportunity
for commissioners to host the podcast, offer to locate community members, generate
music, assist with audio production, etc. The level of engagement is up to each individual
commissioner and what they can offer the group.
• Develop partnerships with local nonprofits and individuals in the community who want to
learn the skills of providing truth -telling opportunities informed by trauma practices, with the
intent of building ongoing capacity in our community.
Our Scope
We have followed the three charges that the TRC was given in Resolution No. 20-228:
Truth -telling, Fact -Finding, and Reconciliation. We have allocated our collaborative efforts to
create teams that correspond to each of these charges. Think Peace will lead the
Truth -Telling Team, Kearns & West will lead the Fact -Finding Team*, and the
Heal ing/Reconciliation Partners will lead the Reconciliation Team. We also see teams as
groups that can be added to/modified, and encourage TRC members, city staff, local partners
and community members to see themselves as part of those teams.
*The Fact -Finding Team will also necessitate the inclusion of a Community Researcher that will
serve as a fact-finding liaison. This locally -based individual will undertake on -the -ground,
fact-finding research.

preceding months. Our team acknowledges that the TRC has a June 30th deadline for
completing their work, and we want to note that if this contracted work begins in September (it is
August 30th) that would only leave 10 months for the process. We strongly feel as though this is
not enough time, and are including a third phase that will include work that will be clearer after
an evaluation of the second phase.

Submitted:
January 31, 2021
REVISED JULY 4
January 31, 2021
Mr. Mohamed Traore
Chairperson —Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Iowa City
Ms. Stefanie Bowers
Equity Director and Human Rights Coordinator— City of Iowa City
Dear Mr. Traore and Ms. Bowers:
I am honored to submit Think Peace's proposal to facilitate the planning, implementation and
evaluation of the public outreach, participation and education activities of the Truth and
Reconciliation Commission of Iowa City.
As you know, the members of Think Peace have followed closely the experience of the Truth
and Reconciliation Commission since its inception, and have actively engaged with its members,
the city authorities and the community to provide advice, share experience and encourage a
constructive process, overcoming the challenges that are intrinsic to a reconciliation process.
In doing so, we have put at the service of the commission our experience as truth tellers,
reconcilers and peace builders in the US and abroad: supporting key truth commissions around
the world, including trauma healing as an essential component, and seeking constructive
engagement within divided communities.
We appreciate that the City Council of Iowa City supports the commission's mission, having
recently extended its temporal mandate, to ensure it complies with its objectives. Further, we
know the Council support's the commission intention to receive expert facilitation to its
multiple charges, through diverse advisers, including those based in Iowa and in other places.
Therefore, we propose a specialized facilitation in one of the aspects covered by the
commission's mandate: those public outreach, participation and education activities necessary
for the work of truth -telling and reconciliation, per resolution 20-228 of September 15, 2020.
We believe that Iowa City and other facilitators have the knowledge and wisdom to support
other processes necessary for the success of the commission, and we would like to participate
in a respectful, complementary, inclusive manner, focusing on the public processes. We believe
this approach will result in a cooperative and positive experience for the commission.
As you will see in our proposal, we emphasize respect for your specificjourney and wisdom,
pragmatism to apply best practices, and humility to ensure you, citizens of Iowa City are firmly
in the lead of your truth and reconciliation process.
2
Sincerely
Eduardo Gonzalez
Convener — Truth and Reconciliation Hub —Think Peace
1. What is Think Peace?
Think Peace, Learning and Support Hub, is a safe and respectful space for those leading efforts
on truth, reconciliation, peacebuilding, and trauma healing in the United States and
internationally. We are aware of the risk that polarization and legacies of injustice pose for
democracy and peace, and we urgently believe that truth and healing can lead to positive
societal transformation. We creatively integrate neuroscience and trauma awareness with
human rights and transitional justice to honor the experiences of survivors, communities and all
those who need healing and crave for transformation.
Think Peace is an initiative of the Mary Hoch Foundation, a charitable organization with a 501c3
identity. It is convened by Eduardo Gonzalez, Anti Pentikainen and Colette Rausch, but it works
not on the basis of individuals but of partnerships, communities of practice and hubs of
practitioners. For the specific work of supporting truth and reconciliation processes in the
United States, Think Peace partners with Dr. David A. Ragland, co -executive director of the
Truth Telling Project. They will be supported in this project by Ms. Jena Kitchen.
Think Peace believes strongly in co -creating processes and in sharing knowledge. We differ
from the model of "experts" that are owners of specialized knowledge, and that, with that
knowledge, seek to replace local wisdom. On the contrary, we propose partnership models
where research and action are participatory and community based. Co -creating a process leads
to co -learning. Additionally, such a participatory process is also a step in the journey toward
trauma healing.
This is a political, ethical, and scientific assertion on our side: we believe that healing is
impossible without societal justice. We believe that our role is to be allies and supporters, not
to replace or lead local communities, and we finally know what neuroscience reveals about the
most effective ways to heal within a truth telling process.
2. Analysis, Objective and Specific Facilitation Tasks:
The Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Iowa City (IC-TRC) has had a complex journey,
similar to that of many truth commissions, whose initial phases were marked by tension.
Indeed, as Archbishop Tutu, chairperson of the well-known South African TRC explained, a truth
commission cannot but represent the tensions, divisions and brokenness of a community.
It was, in hindsight, inevitable for the IC-TRC to face the challenge of acute dissent. Any
transformative task, and particular one addressing the entrenched injustice of racism, will face
fundamental problems. Communities harmed by injustice are communities characterized by
intergenerational trauma and distrust: indeed, withholding trust is sometimes the only
reasonable response for those who have experienced the repeated trauma of marginalization,
violence and other forms of racial injustice.
4
However, the experience of the difficult beginnings of the commission does not cancel but, on
the contrary, increases the need for the restorative process envisioned by City Council
Resolution 20-228. Today, more than ever before, Iowa City needs to give truth a chance.
The work of the IC-TRC is based upon three pillars: Fact -Finding, Truth -Telling and
Reconciliation. Fad -Finding is a research process including the compilation and analysis of
information in order to respond to the need of effective policy -making. Truth -Telling is the
creation of safe, creative and respectful spaces to empower the voices of communities who
suffered injustice. Reconciliation is defined in the mandate of the commission as a dialogical
encounter between different sections of Iowa City, including institutions, to learn from
different perspectives and recommend sustainable change.
The challenges experienced by the IC-TRC in its initial phases make, in our analysis, essential to
ensure that the Truth -Telling process is designed effectively, to address the existing mistrust,
building relationships based on full information, an honest exchange of perspectives, and
ensuring a trauma healing perspective.
The objective of this facilitation proposal then, is no different from that of the IC-TRC, as
described by its mandate (Res. 20-228, 11-12):
the commission must effectively discharge its tasks of Fact -Finding, Truth -Telling and
Reconciliation, creating a safe and supportive space, premised on respect, and striving
for healing and justice.
That safe and supportive space will be a public process, for truth -telling and reconciliation will
require, per the mandate (Res. 20-228,11b, 11c), inter alia, the following activities:
• The creation of multiple fora to share stories of racial injustice and trauma
• Artistic and performative expressions to reveal the truth
• The creation of a repository for community stories
• Direct conversations across institutions and sections of the community
• Opportunities of learning about racial discrimination and injustice
To ensure that the IC TRC complies with its charges, then, Think Peace proposes to facilitate
those public processes related to the objectives of Truth -Telling and Reconciliation, including
the following:
The design of public hearings where stories of racial injustice and trauma are shared, in
conditions of safety, respect and ensuring a trauma healing perspective and the insights
provided by neuroscience. Such public hearings, learning from international experience
and previous US experiences, must have a gender justice perspective, must honor
indigenous and local wisdom, must respect and include LGBTI voices, should be based
5
on the respect for human rights, and should have a restorative focus on survivors and
victims.
• The design of public outreach campaigns whereby the IC-TRC will clearly communicate
to the community its objectives, principles and plans, ensuring a clear understanding of
the potentials and limitations of the commission, and setting the basis for well-informed
and respectful partnerships with the community.
• The design of an engagement campaign directed to, but also by, Iowa City's youth,
artistic communities, faith -based organizations, and other active and creative sections of
the community to explore alternative forms of story -telling and trauma -healing.
• The design of a curating and archiving process to receive significant quantities of
community testimonies, ensuring the voluntary character of the statements, trauma
healing perspectives, the safety of sensitive information, and the educational potential
of the repository.
3. Expertise in the proposed area of facilitation
The members of Think Peace and Dr. Ragland, co -executive director of the Truth Telling Project
are among the foremost experts in truth and reconciliation processes in the United States,
bringing with them a rich international experience.
Mr. Gonzalez and Dr. Ragland have a rich experience designing and supporting creative and safe
public truth -telling. Mr. Gonzalez directed the Public Hearings and Witness Protection Unit at
the Peruvian Truth and Reconciliation Commission in 2001, and has supported since the
design of public hearings for truth commissions around the globe. Dr. Ragland co-founded the
Truth Telling Project, as a US -wide community story -telling process after the killing of Mike
Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, in 2014, and he has advocated for linking truth -telling and
reparations for structural and historical racial injustice.
Ms. Rausch and Mr. Pentikainen have decades of experience in the fields of peacebuilding,
justice and conflict resolution, including work in the most complex scenarios in all continents.
Ms. Rausch has pioneered the development of a trauma healing perspective into peacebuilding,
informed by neuroscience, and ensuring trauma awareness and resilience. Mr. Pentikainen is a
leading theorist and practitioner of reconciliation models, including the fostering of insider
reconcilers, leading the rapprochement of divided communities.
Our program associate, Ms. Kitchen has extensive experience in intercultural scenarios in the
US and abroad. She is interested in the process of leadership creation in contexts of
transgenerational trauma, racial healing, and de -polarization
The team of Think Peace brings together, then, decades of experience and unique expertise to
the design of truth and reconciliation processes, mastering the multiple processes of public
engagement by a truth commission, with a perspective that is respectful of survivors and
victims, based on human rights, informed by trauma healing and inspired by a vision of justice
and healing.

4. Proposed work plan
The mandate of the commission defines the facilitation process as a temporal one, subject to
the need of the IC-TRC, which will be free to decide on its form and duration. This responds, in
our analysis, to the growing skills of the commission, which will strengthen its capacities in the
actual implementation of its different activities.
Moreover, the IC-TRC temporal mandate was extended by the City Council, in recognition of the
need to make up for the time that was unused due to the difficulties in the first phase of the life
of the commission. The original May 2022 deadline for the products of the commission was
extended for an additional year.
For that reason, Think Peace proposes an initial process of six months to support the four above
mentioned activities, focusing on the design, and ensuring that the IC-TRC always has the
discretionary capacity to decide on its relationship with Think Peace, and to decide on the
continuity and shape of a process of accompaniment. We are open to a continued relationship
with the commission, but believe strongly that such a link must be continuously evaluated and
decided upon by Iowa City, the commissioners and, above all, the communities served by the
commission.
We propose to divide the facilitating process in three phases:
aj Preparatory phase:
In agreement with other technical partners, and under the guidance of Iowa City -based
organizations, Think Peace proposes to have a supporting role. Subject to continuous
consultation and emphasizing trust -building, we believe this phase should take at least 3
months.
This phase should include the preparation of the terrain: establishing mechanisms of
coordination between the commission Think Peace and the different technical partners that
will support the work of the commission.
As Think Peace proposes to focus on the public processes of the commission with a focus on
truth -seeking, so there is a need to harmonize this work with other technical partners
focused on fact finding and reconciliation.
Also in the preparatory phase, the TRC with the facilitation of Think Peace will assess its
mandate regarding truth -telling and reconciliation, to jointly identify and conceptualize the
key activities foreseen in the mandate.
7
In this phase, we will introduce key elements regarding our approaches: the knowledge of
truth and reconciliation processes, but also the insights provided by neuroscience and the
trauma healing perspective.
This preparatory phase must include the development of instruments for the commission's
regular work, including:
- How to streamline its activities, specially meetings, in order to provide a closer and agile
relationship with the community.
How to clearly explain to the citizenry of Iowa City the principles leading its public
work, as a compact between the commission and the communities it serves.
How to design key activities under the three elements of its mandate: activities on
truth -seeking, fact-finding and reconciliation.
This phase should include at least one in -presence mission in Iowa City, including a public
educational training, directed to stakeholders in the TRC process.
b) Products phase:
This is the longest and most critical phase of the facilitation process and it deals with the four
products proposed: a plan for the implementation of public hearings leading to the realization
of the first hearing, a plan for the implementation of a public outreach campaign, a plan for the
implementation of a creative engagement campaign, and a plan for the creation of a repository
of story telling.
The production of each of these four products requires a similar methodology including:
• The examination of previous experiences in the US and abroad from similar truth and
reconciliation processes.
The consultation with key partners in Iowa City to identify the specific needs of the
community, which may differ from international or previous national experience, aiming
at ensuring an authentically local process, with local wisdom, practices, and resources.
This should always include a trauma healing perspective.
The preparation of specific work plans for each product, including a detailed description
of objectives, methodologies, resources needed and timeline.
The production of the results will require the presence of at least two of the senior facilitators
at two different moments in the process, including key meetings and at the implementation of
the first public hearing of the commission.
Given the critical importance of the public hearings, this facilitation proposes that in the case of
the public hearings, the facilitation supports notjust the design but the actual implementation
of the first hearing in conditions of safety, respect and dignity, with a view to ensure that the
commission learns by doing and strengthens its capacity to lead all following public hearings.
N
c) Evaluation phase
In the final phase, the TRC and Think Peace will evaluate their work together, with a particular
focus on the implementation of the first public hearing and the tasks needed for the
implementation of the other products. The TRC will decide whether it will require the
facilitation of Think Peace or other facilitators to continue the implementation of hearings and
the other public products linked to truth telling and reconciliation.
Refer to the annexed Excel Timeline page for details.
All these phases would have not only the facilitation of the experts provided by Think Peace,
but the IC TRC will be supported by two additional resources:
1. A hub of practitioners of truth and reconciliation in the US, which is being organized by
Think peace since November of 2021, and is convened by Dr. Ragland. The hub of
practitioners includes participants of truth commission processes, restorative justice
practioners, indigenous healing practitioners and transitional justice experts.
2. A community of practice for trauma healing, being convened by Ms. Rausch, which
integrates the approaches of practitioners and experiences across the country.
5. Proposed budget
a) Time allocation by team members
The budget includes the time dedication for the four resource persons as well as for a program
associate over 6 months, calculated at a rate of 22 days per month.
Mr. Gonzalez's and Dr. Ragland's dedication will be at 20% of their time, at a fixed day rate of
400 USD each.
Ms. Bausch's and Mr. Pentikainen's dedication will be at 10% of their time at a fixed day rate of
400 USD each
Program associate Jena Kitchen's dedication will be at 20% of her time at a fixed day rate of 200
USD.
Think Peace proposes to hire a locally based facilitator at 50% of their time to ensure the
prompt and constant connection with the commission at a fixed day rate of 200 USD
b) Travel expenses
@]
Travel expenses suppose two trips to Iowa City by two senior facilitators, for a total of three
days of meetings and operations.
c) Overhead
Think Peace will include an overhead of 7.5% of all expenses to ensure administrative and
communications support.
Refer to the annexed Excel Timeline page for details.
6. Bios of team members
Eduardo Gonzalez — Project manager and senior facilitator
Eduardo Gonzalez is Peruvian sociologist with twenty years of experience supporting truth and
reconciliation processes around the world. After organizing public victim hearings at his
country's Truth and Reconciliation Commission, he served at the International Center for
Transitional Justice, where he supported truth commissions in all continents, including notable
cases like Greensboro, in the US, East Timor, Tunisia, Canada and many others. As an
independent expert he has supported reparations and truth processes in Sri Lanka, Mali,
Colombia and Finland. He has written and taught in transitional justice. His next publication
concerns unofficial truth commissions. He is affiliated to the Mary Hoch Center for
Reconciliation and serves as an advisor at several transitional justice bodies, including the
Chega National Center in east Timor and the Site of Memory in Peru.
David J Ragland — senior facilitator
David Ragland is a Truth -Telling Reparationist. As a co-founder of the Truth Telling Project of
Ferguson, he conceptualized the role of truth telling as a healing and justice practice and by
making needed connections to reparations. He views reparations in our time as requiring
abolition or the dismantling of systems that were created for the purpose of slavery and
colonization throughout the world, and engages communities in looking at reparations as a
spiritual, political and social intervention that has implications for U.S. accountability within the
country and around the globe. He is currently leading an online course entitled "Building a
Culture of Reparations" and teaches courses at Pacifica Graduate Institute on Restorative
Justice, Peacebuilding and Reconciliation, and Psychology of Violence. He has previously held
faculty positions at Bucknell University, Juniata College and Southeast Illinois University at
Edwardsville.
Colette Rausch — senior facilitator
10
Colette has over 20years of peacebuilding in nearly two dozen violent conflict -affected countries.
Her current focus is exploring how trauma affects reconciliation, blending her peacebuilding
experiences, training in the neurobiology of trauma, and passion for supporting those on the
frontlines of building peace. She was previously with the United States Institute of Peace (USIP),
where she held multiple leadership roles, including founding its Neuroscience and Peacebuilding
Initiative and leading the development of new approaches, research, and tools —including Justice
and Security Dialogue, a pioneering initiative to build trust between local communities and
police. Prior to USIP, Colette held senior human rights and rule of law positions with the
Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe's Mission in Kosovo. She served the U.S.
Department of Justice (DOJ) as legal advisor in Bosnia and Hungary, and as program manager for
Central and East Europe. And she served as a federal prosecutor and public defender.
Antti Pentikainen —senior facilitator
Antti is working as a visiting scholar at the US Institute for Peace. Before his work at Think Peace
he led the Mary Hoch Center for Reconciliation at George Mason University. Antti established
the Network for Religious and Traditional Peacemakers with the U.N. (2015-2019) while also
serving as the special envoy for Finland's Prime Minister on the Refugee Crisis (2015-2019) as
well as advisor to the U.N. Assistant Secretary -General on Prevention of Genocide (2017).
For over a decade, Antti led the efforts of Finn Church Aid (2004-2015) as its executive director,
and assumed multiple leadership positions including Special Advisor for President Ahtisaari,
director at Crisis Management Initiative (2000-2004) and Religions for Peace (2010-2011). Antti
holds experience in peace processes and reconciliation in Somalia, South Sudan and Libya. His
efforts now focus on developing support mechanisms to connect insider reconcilers with state
level political processes
Jena Kitchen — Program Associate
Jena Kitchen is a Program Officer with Think Peace, where she assists in program design,
development, and evaluation. She has 8 years of experience in cross-cultural contexts from
within the United States and internationally, including the Blackfeet Nation (US), Guatemala,
