How to resolve conflicts ethically

When two or more people are in conflict this may seem unresolvable. In this course we see that peace can commonly be achieved by bringing both parties to question, learn and commit to behaving ethically; and then deepening understanding of the nature of the situation and the perspective of the other(s) involved; and then creatively constructing a mutually beneficial (win-win) resolution.

The steps involved include the following:

Help each party to question their current views
Help each party to deepen their understanding of ethics
Help all parties to the conflict to share their current views
Help each party to deepen understanding of the views of the individual(s) they are conflicting with
Help each party deepen their understanding of the situation(s) in which conflict takes place, which includes deepening understanding of others’ perspectives on the situation
Help all parties apply this deepened understanding to work out how it is possible to act in a way which is mutually beneficial
Help all parties to apply this deepened understanding to reach a mutually beneficial resolution in practice

No prior knowledge is required for this course, only the willingness to question one’s current views and think deeply and rigorously about the topic.
