How to Faciltate Dialogue
A workshop on how to lead circles for diverse groups, including strategies to open, close and keep conversations safe and meaningful for all participants
Ittay is a thoughtful, engaging, and articulate educator and leader in the peacebuilding field. He leads a team that navigates an incredibly challenging context, helping young Israelis and Palestinians in Jerusalem -- the center of it all -- connect, begin to understand each other, and ultimately build strong relationships of trust and friendship. He can do all of this because he takes them on a thoughtful journey and himself gains their trust. I've seen it firsthand, and it's both mind-blowing and inspiring. He's also an active participant and leader in the field of professionals focused on peacebuilding, helping to advance partnerships and deeper, wider impact. If you think the Middle East is a mess today, you don't want to imagine it without Ittay and his work.
