Live Webinar Recording – December, 2024
Join Hansa Patel and Melanie Rowen for an insightful one-hour webinar with Rev. Liên Shutt, LCSW, a Zen Buddhist priest, social worker, and social justice advocate, as we explore strategies to address unconscious racism in conflict resolution.
This session introduces the PACE method—Prevent, Abandon, Cultivate, Extend—a four-step approach for skillfully engaging with unconscious racial biases during mediation. We will also delve into “up-power” and “down-power” dynamics in leadership and conflict. Drawing from Rev. Shutt’s book Home is Here: Practicing Antiracism with the Engaged Eightfold Path, this webinar is perfect for conflict resolution professionals and leaders committed to fostering racial equity and justice.
