“I am currently a social project coordinator with an international organisation in my country. I work in an international environment and manage several meetings per week. Being attentive to the group’s dynamics and managing conflicts are the skills that helped me the most in my professional life. It saved me clear up many misunderstandings and even prevented conflicts before starting. Being active in social work, I'd definitely resolve to what I learned in the training very often.”

“I really loved the synchronous training sessions! I was able to learn so much through the practice sessions and through gaining experience with facilitation first-hand, which made me a lot more comfortable with the process. I also really loved engaging with all of the other participants in the training and the facilitators - I learned so much from all of them and really thought it was a great experience to be able to connect with others who are interested in intercultural dialogue.”

“I learned that we are different and I must respect and accept others, avoiding assumptions, perceptions, and stereotypes. I have become more open-minded with others. Professionally, I learned how to use critical thinking to write articles for example, or do interviews with people as I'm a journalist.”
