Virtual Training Event
The International Coalition of Sites of Conscience is pleased to offer its first ever virtual dialogue training course, open to members and non-members alike. Dialogue in Difficult Times is a six-hour virtual training designed to give staff at Sites of Conscience and like-minded organizations the theoretical and practical tools they need to build dialogic conversations.
Participants will explore what dialogue is and is not, how to craft an “Arc of Dialogue,” and practical ways to both encourage and manage participants’ perspectives, drawing from the work and expertise of more than 370 Sites of Conscience around the world.
The training will be held on June 4th, 5th and 6th from 2:00-4:00 PM EST each day, and will be facilitated by Stacey Garcia and Linda Norris. For inquiries, please reach out to training@sitesofconscience.org.
