WEXFO Nansen Academy Dialogue Seminar will focus on dialogue as a tool in conflict situations. The seminar aims to make participants even more equipped in their own work.
By using dialogue as a method and establishing safe spaces for expression, more people will dare to express themselves, even on difficult topics. This is especially useful in situations that are perceived as locked.
