Learn skills and capacities that help create and maintain spaces for belonging for self and others.
Belonging & Connecting Conversations for Peacebuilding develops a shared language and understanding about how challenging situations unwittingly affect behavior and impact values and effectiveness. Participants learn tools for more compassionate and constructive dialogue and increased motivation for collaboration across difference.
This highly-interactive workshop builds understanding, compassion, and cultural humility. We build empowerment through vulnerability and embodiment to support connecting conversations and lasting relationships that reflect the core values of empathy, multiculturalism and social justice. Utilizing frameworks, participants will explore practical methods for cultivating dialogues that bridge divisions, build peace and heal hearts.
Utilizing frameworks, participants will explore practical methods for cultivating dialogues that bridge divisions, build peace, and heal hearts. Participants will learn:
- How challenging situations can easily affect any and all of us to think and act in ways counter to our values and wisdom.
- The social science foundation for greater openness and curiosity of different perspectives and backgrounds, moving beyond “either/or thinking” or divisive frameworks, in order to see greater complexity and possibilities.
- Tools from compassion research to support participants to move from fear, shame, and/or anger to care, curiosity, and motivation.
- Immediately accessible tools for more thoughtful and constructive dialogue across difference to create more equitable relationships and systems, and at the same time, increase motivation to engage and collaborate to bridge divides and expand a sense of “We.”
