NAINConnect 2008 Workshops

Theme: Making a Difference
BEING ABLE TO INFLUENCE THE WORLD

WORKSHOP SUMMARY
It is tempting for grassroots groups to feel powerless to influence or change things, whatever they do. Based on the pioneering work of peacemaker Jean Paul Lederach, this workshop focuses on the power within the web of relationships among small groups of people and the influence these groups can wield for good when they tune into that power.
