Leadership Vision
I would rather suffer the natural consequences of courageously doing the right thing, instead of my shame and regret. I would rather go on a quest with friends and mentors who speak truth to me, instead of claiming I have arrived.
Project Description
Compassionate Vietnam supports people in transforming conflicts together. There are three key elements: culture, partnership and capacity. We practice a culture of compassionate democracy in ongoing dialogue circles. We develop partnerships that serve emergent needs of different organization and communities. We build capacity and supporting structures for local facilitators and mediators. Always, we strive to bring in diverse voices, put partnership before self-benefit, and respect current capacity.
