The Workshop will focus on cultivating an understanding of skills for peaceful dialogue and cooperation, and developing insight into how other countries utilize mediation through three case studies. The morning session will be primarily skills-based, and will introduce active listening, asking the right questions, and unpacking facts, interests, and feelings. The afternoon session will build on the morning session and will focus on understanding leadership competencies in interpersonal interactions. This will involve learning about communication techniques in feedback, reframing, and other concepts. The session will also focus on biases and argument styles of different cultures.
