Being the Change: Creating Peace in Ourselves & the World

Viewing 1 to 1 of 1 posts
Started 1 year ago by BNVC
  1. Acting on the Gandhian principle of "being the change we wish to see in the world," in these interactive workshops we will explore how to create change in our lives and the world that is truly transformative, impacting ourselves & core societal practices and beliefs.

    Saturday will focus on:
    *How our culture functions, impacting our thinking & choices we make everyday
    *Creating a "third-way" of social change, fully empowered by our values
    *Building meaningful and lasting change in the world, with a culture where the needs of all life matter and are held with care
    *Developing practical skills to "be the change"--bridging global vision with local action

    Note: To support everyone's learning, we ask that you have 3+ hours of NVC training before attending Saturday's workshop; if you are new to NVC, please attend Friday night's program.
