OUR NEXT FREE WEBINAR
Nina Koevoets holds two master degrees in Conflict Resolution & Governance and Global Studies and is a free-lance trainer in nonviolent conflict resolution and activism. She wrote a book together with another trainer that was recently published by Pace e Bene: "Engaging Nonviolence. Activating Nonviolent Change in Our Lives and Our World". It is a program with 15 workshop sessions that can be used by both workshop facilitators and participants.
She started giving trainings and workshop four years ago, with the help of a Dutch NGO. Her website is called towardsanonviolentworld.org, as she tries to offer a broad approach to peace-building, changing people's perceptions and providing knowledge and skills. She has been inspired by two system's thinkers: Joanna Macy, through whom she heard of the concept of the Great Turning, and Charles Eisenstein.
Her dedication to nonviolence started with a 10 week long training programme of the Metta Center for Nonviolence Education in the USA, in 2009, where she learned more about the Civil Rights movement and the Indian Independence movement, as well as Nonviolent Communication. Other internships she did were at Save the Children (2007), United Network of Young Peace-builders (2008), Middle East Nonviolence and Democracy (Israel-Palestine, 2009), Center for Conflict Resolution and Human Security (India, 2010) and a European Voluntary Service in Israel-Palestine with the Holy Land Trust (2010-11). She also worked as a workshop facilitator for two different Dutch NGOs, one dealing with "development aid" issues, the other with conflict.

Since our last webinar on "Privilege and Inequality in Ecovillages", NextGEN has been closely working together with Rise Ubuntu Network , on an amazing effort to keep the discussion alive and continue promoting safe, educational and healing spaces.
Social Networks, Communities and Ecovillages are integral to creating a just and beautiful world. However, some of the same social patterns of inequality also appear within these movements. A global array of experienced facilitators and guest speakers will be joining us once a month for deep discussions and education on this topic. A sacred space webinar will also be held once per month to hold our grief and healing on social justice. We will cover topics on Systemic Racism, Inherited and Internalised Oppressions, North/South Decolonisation, Eastern and Western Europe Inequalities, Gender bias and other topics of importance.
