Trident Ploughshares Nonviolent Direct Action Members Training

Trident Ploughshares are organising a day of non violent direct action (nvda) training.

A multi-disciplinary day workshop exploring how theoretical ideas about dialogue can be applied to create powerful new forms of communication and learning.

Focusing is a powerful method of inner enquiry that involves listening deeply to ourselves and sensing into what is present within us. It can be used to transform conflict, to gain a sense of direction or make a decision, as a coaching tool, or to aid the processes of turning a vision or idea into practical action, either individually or in a co-creative setting.

A certificated four day training course in coaching through personal or organisational conflict, for those with some prior coaching, counselling or 1:1 experience who are looking to add an effective new skill to their toolkit. Organisational rate - £625. Individual rate- £312.50.

An anti-oppression workshop for people committed to social change.
