4 credits (Fall)

This course introduces students to the theory and practice of dialogue facilitation, from bridge-building approaches to dialogue, to restorative practices and other conflict resolution methods. Students’ facilitation training will include observing a community dialogue, after which they will design and facilitate a campus dialogue as part of a group project. That training will equip them to practice dialogue across a variety of contexts, from the classroom, to the workplace, to the broader community.
