Thursday, July 15, 2021

Presenter: Aliza McKeigue

Topic: "Nature: The Great Equalizer"

"While intuitive at its core, there is mounting scientific evidence that humans benefit from interaction with nature," says Aliza. "There are practical ways to use nature as a facilitator to create more harmonious relationships and communities." In this talk, we explore why the natural world eases anxiety, fear, and anger, and how our shared experience of the outdoors breaks down barriers and opens lines for communication.

Presenter: Elizabeth Kent

Topic: "Signature Moves: What Works for You in Conflict Resolution?"

"Do you have any 'signature moves' that you frequently use in your conflict resolution work?" asks Elizabeth, "Something you say or do almost every time you mediate or facilitate a case?" In this interactive session, we will talk-story about our own moves and share some successful and less successful signature moves. Then we will discuss matching moves to the situations where they might be most useful.
