OVERCOMING VIOLENCE - EXPLORING MASCULINITIES, VIOLENCE AND PEACE
The Women Peacemakers Program of IFOR is convinced that in order to change cultures of war and violence, women peace activists need to work together with male allies. Therefore the WPP organized a Training of Trainers entitled “Overcoming Violence - Exploring Masculinities, Violence and Peace”.
This Training of Trainers took place November 30 - December 11, 2009 and aims to:
- train male trainers on gender-sensitive active non-violence (ANV);
- explore the concept of masculinities in relation to issues of violence and peace;
- create a pool of male gender-sensitive active nonviolence trainers;
The training is facilitated by Patrica Ackerman, a well-known nonviolent activist and Steven Botkin, Executive Director of Men's Resources International.
This blog was created to inform people who are interested in this training and its outcomes. The blog features some thoughts and reflections of the participants during the training.
