International trainings and events
Since 2000, Savanna ConneXions has had the pleasure of bringing international NVC trainers to Finland to provide workshops, trainings and other events. See below for the next opportunity!
Upcoming events
A HELPING HAND!
1) Helsinki, December 12–13 (Sat-Sun), 2020 – already fully booked
2) Helsinki, April 17-18 (Sat-Sun), 2021 – open for enrolments!
This is an ADVANCED MEDIATION TRAINING based on NVC by Liv Larsson, CNVC Certified Trainer, Mediator and Author of the book Helping Hand from Sweden.
With ADVANCED we mean that we hope that you have already studied and hopefully practiced NVC-based mediation. We welcome especially Constructive Communication Counselors (RVOs).
We will offer challenging and hands-on training days with the focus on practice. Your communication skills will be challenged as well as your ways of being with conflicts, anger, shame and parties, which don’t want to cooperate.
These 4 questions will be examined together:
– What part does shame play in mediation?
– What can help you out of a blocked place?
– How do you build trust?
– How do you support everyone in a conflict to take 100% responsibility?
The training will partly be built on requests by participants to add to their skill bank.
To come prepared we ask you to read again the first 5 chapters of the book by Liv Larsson, A Helping hand, Mediation with Nonviolent Communication. (= Sovittelun taito)
Venue: Leikkiväki ry, Vellamonkatu 30, Helsinki
Organizer: Savanna ConneXions Oy
Price: sliding scale, 350-600 € (incudes VAT 24%)
Price includes the training, possible training materials and coffee
About the sliding scale:
We would also like to give people with different economical resources a possibility to participate in this training and therefore we request of you to pay an amount of your choice extra (anything above 350 euros), which goes to Savanna ConneXions scholarship account and which we will then use to support those, who would otherwise not be able to participate in this training. Tell us the sum you decide to pay to make sure you have the same sum on your invoice. In case you pay more than the minimum request, you are helping us say yes to some people, who do not have resources right now.
Language: English (with a possibility to use your mother tongue when practicing in triads)
Trainer: Liv Larsson, Author, Mediator and CNVC Certified Trainer with Hanna Savanna as the Assisting Trainer
