Facilitation Training Course

Between 2008-12, CTE focused exclusively on two conflict transformation educational programs: a facilitation training course offered at Columbia University’s School of International and Public Affairs and the University of San Francisco (USF) and a comparative conflict analysis and transformation course run through USF called Beyond Bridges: Israel-Palestine (BBIP).

For more on the pedagogical underpinnings of these two programs see the following academic articles:
