This two-day training will provide participants with a comprehensive introduction to the philosophy and strategy of Kingian Nonviolence. This training is useful for anyone who deals with conflict: inter-personal or larger social conflicts, whether in your personal life, in the workplace, or in your work for social change. During this training, we will go over the types and levels of conflict, readings and analysis of Dr. King’s thinking, the six principles of nonviolence and the six steps of nonviolence. The training will include lectures, role-plays, video presentations, and other interactive activities.
