Oxford: 'From Crisis to Opportunity': Conflict Resolution & Mediation on Campus

18:43 Sun 25 Oct 2009



With Samuel Klein and Salman Shaikh

“When written in Chinese, the word "crisis" is composed of two characters-one represents danger, and the other represents opportunity.” John F Kennedy

In this workshop, students will gain a broad picture of some key issues and challenges facing those involved in conflict resolution work on university campuses from a variety of theoretical perspectives. Through role-play and discussion, we will identify constructive responses to conflict within a campus context as well as practical techniques to enhance leadership skills in this area.
