1.1A How to Have Courageous Dialogues

Courageous Dialogues: Moving Beyond Polarization is a project that seeks to build understanding of polarization as it is happening in our communities, and to identify tools, strategies and other resources to help transcend divides.  

In this session, Jennie and Andrea from the Courageous Dialogues research team will lead you through a technique to approach the conversations you're scared to have - and you'll walk away with one cool tool in your back pocket.

Jennie Barron is the Chair of the Mir Centre for Peace (Selkirk College), and the Courageous Dialogues project director.  

Andrea Korens is a Senior Program Coordinator at Vancouver Community College, and a Courageous Dialogues research team member.
