****Due to such a fantastic response for the training this Saturday we have decided to put on two, shorter sessions to enable more people to attend.****
The first training session will now take place from 12 and run to 3pm. (Please note this is one hour shorter than previously advertised). 
The second training will take place from 3:30-6:30pm. 
************************************************************
 Migration is possibly the most sensitive issue in Britain today. Debates on the subject can be uncomfortable, upsetting or angry, and often do little to change anyone’s mind. At the same time, fighting for a progressive stance on migration is more important than ever, and we need to be able to persuade people who don’t already completely agree with us.
To learn the tools to do this, join a participatory workshop led by experienced organisers from HOPE not hate. The session will focus on how to listen and question effectively, how to use stories to effectively persuade people, and how to create spaces for more constructive communication around difficult issues.
Key elements of the session: Story of self: What are our stories? Why is narrative important? Who do we need to speak to? How? The myth of myth-busting Key techniques: empathetic listening and Socratic questioning. Case study: story and techniques used in practice.
Organised by HOPE not hate and Global Justice Now
