The first session of the Peace Ambassador Training begins today Wednesday, January 14 at 8pm eastern time. Your participation in the emergence of conscious peacebuilding skills is integral for this evolutionary shift.
When an evolutionary spark comes along that changes the situation for everyone, most people would like to be there as a new culture is dawning. The barrier commonly faced is that many of our notions of peace appear as a futuristic dream, hard to attain, full of sacrifice, and so much more. The new peace movement involves dynamic interplay between people, circumstances, and co-creating a sustainable future.
Why The Course?
Peacemaking skills are essential. We may struggle with putting peace into practice. We get caught in reactionary emotional patterns of conflict due to our complex world which has been shaped by millennia of violence impacted by physical, psychological and spiritual wounding. When we find ourselves sitting in the fires of worldly challenges we can learn to transmute polarization, animosity, and the deep suffering of the world.
Peacemaking is one of THE most advanced skill sets we can learn in our world today. Yet most of us have not been trained in how to develop ourselves to be prepared for addressing everyday issues and challenges. We may still back away from heated situations and discussions with family, friends and co-workers. Learning peace building skills allows us to take strong principled stances
Cultivating the skills needed to truly create real peace in your life, for others and the world is something that we can learn, develop and live by.

From his life of peacebuilding he has created a program like no other — The Peace Ambassador Training.
