Conflict Transformation

Conflict Transformation

Conflict transformation is more than just fixing conflicts between and among parties. It is a multi-layered approach, involving different skills and an open mindset.


Opposing parties are guided in each other’s “feet”, to see, feel and experience the conflict from the other’s perspective.


Through this process different aspects of the conflict is revealed, leading to important breakthroughs on different levels. It allows for moments of truth telling, acknowledgement, understanding and forgiveness, all key elements in resolving the conflict and developing new and sustainable relationships.
