How can we bridge divides when we experience conflict, division and difference?
Conflict, division and difference can be a roadblock to change but can also be an opportunity to pause, reflect and find a fresh way.
We’ll be exploring how to bridge divides and unlock inspiration with Neil Denton of the After Disasters’ Network at Durham University - who is a community mediator and the author of the Bridge-builders Handbook for the Relationships Project - and we’ll be sharing examples and ideas with each other about how to put this into practice. Do join us.
This event is part of a series exploring a question which cuts across the four behaviours in our model for change: how can we remove the roadblocks to a Better Way?
In 2021, we heard that many people at every level can play a part in driving change by:
Challenging and changing whatever stands in the way, including the deep-seated assumptions that can prevent us from being our best selves.
Calling out inequalities and abuses of power, and making sure everyone can participate on their own terms.
Assuming the best in others and seeing difference, conflict and division as an opportunity to pause, seek to understand, and find a fresh way.
But resistance to change is widespread, whether through culture, systems or practices. So how can we get better at overcoming the resistance and removing the roadblocks?
