Momen Muhanned, a student at University of Mosul in Iraq, is a former World in Conversation (WinC) facilitator who participated in all of our classes voluntarily when COVID-19 sent all of our work online. This led him to playing a key role as a “citizen diplomat” in support of Azmat Khan, a Pulitzer prize winning investigative journalist for the New York Times.
Some of our colleagues recently traveled to Penn State University from around the world to attend a conference hosted by World in Conversation. Learn how they make it possible for us to serve people and communities with needs, interests, and risk factors that may be vastly different from one another.
During Canada’s recent Democracy Summit DemocracyXChange, Laurie presented a case for how conflict facilitators are necessary for people to meaningfully collaborate across deep divides in order to build solutions for our most pressing social problems.
