SUMMARY:How Religion Informs Conflict Resolution Spring Course - First Session
DESCRIPTION:Religions have presented many challenges to the world but they have also offered positive guidance on life and society.  All religions have had some form of the Golden Rule as well as non-dogmatic principles related to peace and harmony.  This course will first look at the peaceful principles of each religion\, and then consider the principles shared by all religions.  These common set of principles can help peace professionals work cross-culturally and internationally. \nClick here and scroll down to register

SUMMARY:Mediation\, Dialogue and Democracy: The Conflict of Politics and the Politics of Conflict - First Session
DESCRIPTION:Traditional politics\, as a form of problem solving\, is becoming increasingly adversarial\, costly\, time-consuming\, destructive\, and unable to resolve pressing and potentially catastrophic global problems.  Conversations about difficult\, dangerous and controversial social\, economic and political issues are minefields\, full of hidden traps and camouflaged dangers.  As a result\, many people assume it is better not to talk about them at all\, rather than participate in conversations that could blow up.  Yet silence in the face of difficult issues guarantees their continuation. \nOver the last several decades\, mediators have helped design\, organize and conduct successful dialogues on difficult\, dangerous and controversial issues.  This workshop will offer a set of practical guidelines to people who would like to understand political conflicts\, and to design\, organize and conduct dialogues on difficult\, dangerous and controversial issues.  It will examine the role conflict resolvers can play in revealing the systemic sources of chronic\, complex global conflicts and identify ways of acting both locally and internationally to build democracy and conflict resolution capacity\, and support a “conflict revolution” in the ways we respond to political differences. \nClick here and scroll down to register
