Conflict Resolution, Facilitation, Leadership, Peacebuilding, Social Innovation
After the Brexit vote in 2016, the British public’s social anxiety increased tremendously. I designed a process to help people to switch into their listening brain and to practice the art of listening to help bring understanding and peace. The Listening Cafes were featured in Positive News and the format of the Listening Cafe was incorporated into a university syllabus.
The Circle Way invited me to write an article about The Birth of Listening Cafes.
As an integral part of this work, I designed and published a guide to running Listening Circles and Cafes.
The aim was the help people feel less afraid to hearing another person's views.
