Ep 43 - Learning to listen before we respond: a practice for communities in conflict.

Peacebuilding can feel out of reach, even for people who care deeply about it. In this episode, host Ken Ogasawara shares about four African diaspora communities in Ontario (Eritrean, Ethiopian, South Sudanese and Congolese) that are doing practical peacebuilding through the Working Together for Peace project with MCC Ontario. Their work follows a three-step process: say yes, get equipped, and multiply. Whether you are a newcomer to Canada or not, the stories here offer inspiration and practical learning. Peace Conference: Saturday, November 7, MCC Ontario. Registration link in the show notes.
