If one thing is certain in this life, it’s that we will always have conflict. It’s a normal part of being human: conflict with friends, family, and co-workers; conflict in our community; conflict within ourselves. 

We can’t escape conflict, but we can create something beautiful out of it. Instead of fleeing from conflict or treating it like a battle to win, conflict can be an opportunity to strengthen relationships, find new solutions, and build a better future together.

Approaching conflict constructively is possible, but it takes skill and intention. How can we peel back the layers of conflict and discover the causes underneath? How can we move beyond our “fight or flight” instinct and choose to collaborate with others? How can we transform conflicts in the community around us?

Our “Connecting in Conflict” course is perfect for community members looking for foundational skills and concepts that they can use to address personal and interpersonal conflicts, as well as leaders and peacebuilders seeking an integrated toolkit for transforming interpersonal conflict.
