Training and Education

Experience and a good education are key factors for sustainable and creative conflict transformtion. The principal philosophies and theories need to be studies, methods and techniques are to be practiced. We are convinced that awareness for non-violent approaches to conflict should be part of every person's basic education. This contributes significantly to the personal development of each individual.

The training of conflict consultants and mediators, who practically apply their knowledge, will help to promote more peaceful interaction between people resulting into a more peaceful society. Furthermore, joint training of conflict parties can be used as a special mean for conflict transformation.

Besides organizing and conducting our own training courses we also offer tailored courses for organizations.

Our current trainings include the following:

• Certificate of Advanced Studies (University of Basel) "Integrative Conflict Transformation", recognized by the Swiss Federation of Mediation, SDM.
• Dialogue Process Facilitation, (based on Bohm und Buber).
