Spotlight Webinars

New in 2025: Webinars – Spotlight on …

In these webinars we want to give you some insights into our training topics. We want to share twice a year some key contents from our longest running as well as our latest practitioner trainings. Our experienced trainers will introduce a specific concept, method or tool – and will share their experiences of applying it in their practical work. 

Webinar "Implicit Ethical Messages" on 09.05.2025

Spotlight on … Implicit Ethical Messages 

Implicit ethical messages are messages that we as peace practitioners, development workers or human rights activists send through our behaviour and how we run our projects and organisations. These hidden messages might be perceived as contradictory to our good intentions and project aims. According to the Do No Harm-approach, the concept of Implicit Ethical Messages is one of the two patterns how a project interacts with its context either in a positive or negative way. 

This concept is part of the Practitioner Training on “Applying Do No Harm”, on “Project Management” and the “Do No Harm-Training of Trainers” —in case you want to know more about this in a broader context.

Webinar "Social Defense" on 29.08.2025

Spotlight on … Social Defense 

Social Defense is a concept to defend one’s society in a nonviolent way against an attack either from the inside, like a coup d’etat, or the outside, like a military invasion. Historically, there are many examples that people have opted for nonviolent resistance, and succeeded. What are the conditions for success? And how can we prepare for social defense instead of relying on military defense? 

This concept is part of the practitioner training on “Nonviolent Conflict Transformation” - in case you want to know more about this in a broader context.
