6 Tuesdays, Jan 21 to Feb 25, 4-5:30pm, via Zoom
Through a partnership between DGCEC and Pace e Bene Nonviolence Service
Curious about nonviolence? Find out what it is and what it can do for you. From practical skills to useful tools, this 6-week course explores how nonviolence can help you in personal relationships, conflicts in community, and social change. Nonviolence is a way of life, a set of principles, a collection of practices for navigating conflict, and a toolbox for making change. In this course, we will introduce and explore them all. Join Rivera and Anne for this series of participatory virtual sessions featuring stories, discussions, exercises, and reflections in large and small groups. You will leave feeling inspired and empowered to create change within yourself, foster healthy relationships, and contribute to a more just and peaceful world. This course offers a unique blend of theory and practice, providing you with the tools to navigate conflict effectively and integrate nonviolence into your everyday life.
Requirements: Participants are encouraged (but not required) to purchase the Engaging Nonviolence Study Manual. It can be bought in DGCEC’s Tibetan Marketplace, from PaceeBene.org or on Amazon. Participants must have internet access, and microphone and video on their computer. Each week, participants will be expected to complete weekly readings/viewings and come prepared for group discussions online.
