What We Learn When We Listen to Children of War — Live Virtual Conversation with Myriam Denov

A live virtual conversation will take place on February 25 at 1:00 p.m. (Eastern) featuring Myriam Denov, Tier 1 Canada Research Chair in Children, Families and Armed Conflict at McGill University and 2025 Impact Award Gold Medal winner from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada.

For more than 25 years, Denov has centred her research on the lived experiences of war-affected children and families across Asia, Africa, and the Americas. Her work focuses on child soldiers, gender-based violence, and pathways to community reintegration.

Grounded in participatory research methods, Denov engages young people as research partners, amplifying their voices to inform policy, practice, and public understanding. Her contributions have advanced justice, inclusion, and evidence-based approaches to supporting children affected by armed conflict.
