PT¡@The Evolution of Conflict AND THE FACILITATION OF ITS RESOLUTION

  • Gilbert Brenson-Lazan
  • Advanced Level
  • No upper limit

    Much has been written about the different strategies and skills for the resolution of conflicts, while precious little has been developed to facilitate a greater understanding of the evolution or development of conflict. In order to use the most culturally appropriate and effective techniques for conflict resolution, the facilitator needs to identify, with his or her clients, the stage of conflict that they are in and then choose, together, the most appropriate strategy for its resolution.

    This process was developed by the presenter with his German colleagues from the GTZ and further applied to process of facilitation of conflict resolution in Latin America. (Gnass, Brenson y Glasl, 1998, 2002).

    This skill-building workshop will present specific skills and strategies that the facilitator may use to help the people involved to recognize the stage of conflict that they are in and to decide upon an appropriate resolution strategy.
