Healing the Divide: MeToo to WeTogether
A window was opened [within me] into a previously closed space. Men’s voices were heard, women’s voices were heard, true equality in engagement. I found the course incredibly inspiring and transformative personally and professionally
~ Jacqueline, Female Participant, South Africa
I have been deeply touched by my experiences with GERI courses. While I have long been aware of gender injustice and violence, true solutions are rare. This kind of truth telling and witnessing opened my heart and mind to the possibility of true gender equality.

Can you imagine being part of a group who actually share their truth together - across the genders? A group of people who begin to re-invent our human future together—replacing our legacy of gender dysfunction with a new civilization of beloved community?
This carefully facilitated 7-week course creates a safe forum where we can awaken a deeper empathy and understanding and begin to discover practical pathways towards healing and transforming our relationships. Together we can begin to re-form relations between women and men, and people of all genders, without blame or shame, and move through the often unspoken, unconscious attitudes, fears and reactions around gender and sexuality, to reclaim the mutual harmony and reverence that is our birthright.
Join us for this interactive and experiential online course and embark upon a new form of spiritual healing and reconciliation work that builds trust and compassionate communication through a skillful combination of interactive activities, spiritual practice, and transformative group process. In partnership with Gender Equity and Reconciliation International (GERI).
