We train leaders, frontline workers and community members to build peace through traditional Indigenous practices.
Together with experienced knowledge keepers and Elders, we’ll build the skills to facilitate peace by exploring the rich and transformative social skills of Indigenous cultures.
Integrating non-violent communication, somatic experiencing, trauma healing and connection with the land.
Honed through 10 years of Indigenous community engagement and research, our Peace Circle Workshops support participants to situate their own identity within a collective framework. This Indigenous way of being is uplifting and promotes healing and unity.
We train frontline Indigenous changemakers, counselors and leaders to facilitate peace, healing and learning circles.
Participants engage with Indigenous trauma-healing, restorative identity and conflict resolution, learning transformative tools for building respectful relationships that they can bring to their community members, peers and partners.
Each workshop includes hands-on culture making, including weaving, drum making, plant gathering, regalia and storytelling.
We train and facilitate leaders and staff from civil society, government and social services to collaborate and partner with Indigenous communities in good ways.
Participants learn effective practices they can integrate into their organizations for systemic impacts that uphold the Truth and Reconciliation Commission Calls to Action.
These practices are accessible and immediately actionable, for day-to-day relationship building and policy-level insight.
Peace Circles become trusted places to intervene on and heal from violence in family, community and services, replacing harm with respect, responsibility and reciprocity.
When you learn to facilitate Peace Circles in your own communities and agencies you are able to share skills in Indigenous conflict resolution, healing from trauma and addictions, and building relationships based on belonging, place, trust and respect.
After completing our workshops, we connect you into Circles of Practice across our networks so you can support each other's journeys and collaborate in building peace at a systems level.
