This is the first of a series of 6 follow-up events of the Social Tools 2019 conference. This session will be based on the workshop of Sofia Bustamante. We will pick the first 5 patterns from her Conflict Language and do some related exercises. In the second part of the session Sofia will be available for an Q&A via video chat.

Since new practices cannot be established during a weekend workshop we decided to host 6 follow up training sessions. The "program" for this sessions will be loosely based on some of the patterns and tools that were brought up in the 2019 conference. We as well will come back to the "12 Patterns of Decentralized Organizing" as outlined by Nat and Rich in their workshop in 2018. We will also pull in ressources and ideas from Sociaocracy 3.0 and Cultural Democracy. We will exchange experiences and practices, do some exercises and deepen our understanding of the patterns. We will pull in other resources and discussions, for example from Sociocracy 3.0 or Cultural Democracy. The session will conclude with a Case Clinic if time allows. These sessions are open to anyone – not only Social Tools participants.
