Meetings and conflict resolution

These are a teaching resource designed to go with presentations of one sort or another. At the moment I have provided them largely without explanation in order to make them immediately available. At some point I may get round to making them more interactive with explanations for each heading and point.

Meetings 1: base pattern

Meetings 2: roles

Meetings 3: mediation

Meetings 4: applying the base pattern to a work or activity day

Challenging oppressive values

The latter is a piece of collaborative work produced by Emma Culleton, Liz Thomas and myself on the first Cyfanfyd course for trainers in Education in Sustainable Development and Global Citizenship or ESDGC. (A bit of a mouthful but its going into our schools and youth groups and we would do well to make as much use as possible of the excellent opportunites that it presents).
