Bringing Us Back Together in a Polarised World Through Dialogue, Empathy & Courage
Join Andrej from Kokoro for an intimate workshop (max. 8 participants) exploring how we can bring people back together in an increasingly polarised world.
Together, we will look at how dialogue, empathy and courage help us to stay in conversation, especially when we disagree.
At the heart of this work are belonging and psychological safety. When people feel they belong, they are more willing to take responsibility. When safety is present, difficult conversations become possible without humiliation or exclusion.
Through reflection and hands-on practice, you’ll develop concrete behaviours and actions that can become habits, helping to bridge differences, address harm and move forward - without breaking connection.

Agenda
-
Arrive and connect
The day starts slowly, on purpose. Come as you are, take something from the light breakfast including coffee/tea, olives, sheep chees tomatoes & small Turkish cucumbers. This is the way we introduce ourselves and we take our conversations from here.
-
What is Calling In? Beyond the buzz
Before we go further, we look at what it actually means and what it feels like from the inside. When have you felt called out? When have you felt called in? These two experiences leave very different marks on us. Surfacing them together helps us understand what we are actually working with.

Bridging belonging and psychological safety
Belonging is what makes people willing to show up. When people feel they belong, they are more likely to hold each other accountable. When safety is present, difficult conversations stop being something to avoid. We map the signals and behaviours that pull people in, and the ones that quietly push them out.
