    Language and Communication as a Means of Pro-Social Community Development

    In conflict areas like the Middle East, people often create in and experience pressure
    from others to use language, to communicate and/or to act in a way that matches one’s
    "style/beliefs/traditions/heritage". These modes of language and methods of
    communication, often hinder positive community development. Instead of promoting pro-
    social community development, communities often develop norms of violent transactions
    based on language and communicative strategies that are antisocial. People often
    hunger/strive for positive/negative strokes by engaging in violent strategies/behaviors in
    order to gain recognition, attention or responsiveness. One's subjective/objective
    communication strategies, including scripts/narratives/stories often get people stuck in
    certain actions to "prove" one is right, no matter the consequences, even at the cost of
    pain, compulsion, self-defeating behavior, martyrdom, death and destruction.

    In the "Language and Communication as a Means of Community Development"


    workshop we will explore how we are all compassionate by nature and that violent
    communication strategies—whether verbal or physical—are learned behaviors taught
    and supported by prevailing cultures. We will learn how we all share the same, basic
    human needs, and that each of our actions are a strategy to meet one or more of these
    needs.

    In the workshop the participants will learn how to develop greater authenticity in their
    communication. We will explore how to augment positive community development by
    creating a task force that will focus on increasing understanding and deepening
    connection. We will create and develop systems that will empower peace
    educators/therapists with the tools to analyze the use of language enabling them to
    understand/perceive/communicate their life scripts/narratives and to answer questions
    like:

    "What matters?”, "How do I/we get along?" , "What kind of person am/are I/we?. What
    type of community do we want to develop?

    Through role-playing and participatory games/exercises, we will perceive/feel/discover


    how certain communication patterns of our behavior/feelings/ways of thinking are either
    functional/beneficial/positive or dysfunctional/counterproductive/negative, which
    contribute to perpetuate the conflict/tension in the area.

    The workshop offers a powerful approach for Peace Educators that challenges the
    participants to discover/formulate a "paradigm shift" to conflict/tension situations while
    offering creative interrelationship skills to effectively communicate information
    concerning events/situations that will contribute towards pro-social community
    development.
