The final day of communiCARE 5.0 was a time to celebrate the journey we had shared together.

In the morning, we explored the role of appreciation and gratitude in Nonviolent Communication. Afterwards, participants met for the last time in their Home Groups to harvest their learning, reflect on their personal journeys, and celebrate everything they had experienced during the week.

Later, we looked ahead. We talked about dissemination, future steps, and different ways to continue learning and practising Nonviolent Communication beyond the training.

We closed the programme with a reflection on our learning, how we want to integrate NVC into our everyday lives, and a final sharing circle where everyone had the opportunity to offer their last words to the group.

The training ended with the Youthpass ceremony, celebrating the personal growth, meaningful connections, and unforgettable moments we created together.

Day 5 of communiCARE 5.0 was dedicated to practising empathy in challenging conversations.

In the morning, participants explored different ways we can listen during conflict and experienced how changing our focus can completely transform the quality of a dialogue. They also observed a demonstration of an empathy process, seeing how empathic presence can support connection, even in difficult situations.

The afternoon and evening were devoted to practice. Participants worked in small groups on real-life situations, preparing for important conversations, exploring challenging relationships, and supporting one another with empathy and role plays.

communiCARE is back! Today, we started the 5th edition of our flagship training on empathic communication rooted in NVC by Marshall Rosenberg. The heatwave didn't stop us from exploring our surroundings and ourselves. Today, 22 people started their reflective journey towards peace with themselves, with others, and towards bringing peace to their communities.

And for the third year in a row, we are hosted by our beloved Chutor Gorajec

Our creative journey came to the end. But, did it, though?

The morning was dedicated to finalising and presenting the creative tools and resources developed by participants during the training. It was inspiring to see how many practical ideas emerged from the group and how different experiences, perspectives, and talents came together in the final products.

We also spent time looking ahead, discussing follow up actions and how participants can bring creativity into their youth work, organisations, and everyday lives. Before lunch, the reflection groups met for the last time to harvest key learnings and insights from this shared journey.

In the afternoon, we evaluated the training, gathered for a final circle, and celebrated the end of this learning experience with the Youthpass certificate ceremony.

Big Thank you to all participants for your openness, courage to experiment, creativity, and willingness to learn together. Creativity is contagious, as we could experience during our little gathering, so pass it on!
