However, violence as a way of dealing with conflict isn't inevitable in the same way. What are non-violent approaches to conflict, at an individual, group and national level? Learn and practice some skills you can use in your personal and professional life.
Shantigarbha an international NVC trainer certified with the Center for Nonviolent Communication will be facilitating this event.
