Speak up and listen! NVC with children & teenagers

In this workshop you will be supported as a teacher or parent to speak NVC and be a role model for dialogue and understanding. We will focus on finding a balance between clear leadership and taking the children´s point of view into account.
Communication is one of our most important life skills. Learning to listen, learning to speak up for what you need and want, verbalizing your dreams, are some helpful skills when forming a life-enriching learning atmosphere and guiding basic democracy.
Let´s explore and practise together how NVC can guide us, and inspire the younger generation from how we ourselves speak up and listen.
We will practise to
- clearly communicate from our values and needs
- express appreciation and celebrate what “is”
- show clear boundaries free from threats or punishment
- engage with any resistance in a connective way
- listen with presence and empathy
- make clear requests
- make and break rules and agreements with care and respect
- cultivate self-empathy and self-care
