What people say about us
‘The training does not provide a ready-made solution, but rather a set of tools that you can apply flexibly in all kinds of situations. The emphasis on ‘leveling the playing field’ creates real interaction between participants during the session. The balance between dialogue and more structured training elements makes it a valuable experience.’
‘I worked with a diverse group of 10 participants, all of whom were very interested in the topic. Because of their diverse backgrounds, many different perspectives came through, which enriched the conversations and provided many new insights.’
‘I have now conducted about four to five training sessions, sometimes for large groups of 20 to 30 participants. I noticed that the combination of interaction and listening works well. Participants stay engaged and get the space to share their own experiences.’
‘I delivered one training and found the atmosphere very positive and energetic. Participants were open to new insights and actively engaged with each other. I noticed a greater awareness afterwards about street harassment and the role we can all play in countering it.’
