HIGHLIGHTED
In 2024, the Dutch Armed Forces were awarded the Carnegie Peace Prize. This speech (in English), delivered as an external speaker, explores the moral dilemmas of “fighting for peace.” As a peacekeeper, you often find yourself in a place where there’s no peace to keep – only war to witness. And that’s why you’re there. This demands a great deal from a soldier, but also from society as a whole.
