CONTACT Program Summer Peacebuilding Program 2009
CONTACT, the Conflict Transformation Across Cultures Summer Peacebuilding Program will take place June 1-19, 2009
BRATTLEBORO, VT (February 6, 2009) -- Now in its 13th year, CONTACT is an acclaimed program led by renowned faculty from around the world. CONTACT participants build authentic relationships with others from zones of conflict, practice the art of peacemaking, refine their skills, and explore the rich challenges of reconciliation and forgiveness. The learning community becomes a laboratory where participants experience shifts in their own attitudes and behavior as they create a culture of peace, compassion, and tolerance. Participants engage in conflict analysis, develop interventions and strategies for actions in situations of protracted conflicts, and practice skills of dialogue, mediation, training, and other essential tools of peacebuilding.
This program will be followed by the Graduate Certificate in Conflict Transformation (on-line) from September '09-May '10.
