Conflict facilitation tools for community leaders in education

Project supported and funded by the European Union

Conflict facilitation tools for community leaders in adult education, a project supported by SAAIC — the Erasmus+ National Agency.

The project responds to the needs of non-formal educators who facilitate conflict. Conflict is a natural part of personal relationships and society, and responding to it effectively calls for approaches that go beyond logical reasoning.

The project aims to strengthen educators’ conflict facilitation skills through approaches that see conflict as an opportunity for learning and creative solutions. The “4 Ways of Thinking” course provides a theoretical foundation and practical training in four modes of thinking.

The course took place in Austria in August 2026 and was led by Helga and Manfred Weule from Institut Bewusstseinsstrategien.
