peace circles

Peace circles are a structured, respectful conversation method that brings people together to address conflicts or issues. Participants sit in a circle to promote equality and open communication. A facilitator guides the process, encouraging active listening, empathy, and shared understanding. Each person has an opportunity to speak without interruption, fostering trust and collaboration. The goal is to find mutually agreeable solutions, restore relationships, and promote healing. Peace circles are used in schools, communities, and organizations to resolve disputes, build community, and strengthen connections in a respectful, inclusive environment.
