Leah Green, co-founder of the Compassionate Listening Project, describes this workshop as a means for "those wanting to strengthen their skills as peacemakers and cultivate compassion in their daily lives. Compassionate Listening is a powerful tool for reconciliation. It is used to initiate peace-building efforts in conflict at all levels: personal, community, and global, offering insight and healing for all."

The workshop will focus on the fundamentals of Compassionate Listening and help you to learn about the ways you can bring this technique into your daily life. For more information visit their website at: www.compassionatelistening.org
