A 6 Hour Virtual Workshop with Sites of Conscience
Engaging the public in contentious conversations is not easy, but it is often necessary.
The International Coalition of Sites of Conscience is pleased to offer this virtual dialogue training course, open to members and non-members alike. Dialogue in Difficult Times is a six-hour 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 over 370 members in 70 countries.
The training will be held across three days: February 4th, 5th, and 6th from 10AM-12PM EST each day.
- Day 1 Tuesday, February 4th 2025 : What is Dialogue? Understanding the Four Truths
- Day 2 Wednesday, February 5th 2025: The Arc of Dialogue and Crafting Great Questions
- Day 3 Thursday, February 6th 2025: Facilitation Tools and Techniques Including Handling Conflict
