Summary & Key Takeways

How do you cope with and transform polarization, hatred and all things divisive?

Now more than ever we need all hands-on deck to deal with and heal from deep-rooted divisions in our societies.  From practitioners with formal training in conflict transformation to every day folks, we need the tools to navigate the waters of disinformation, fear and intolerance.
