Global Ecovillage Network/Solution Library/Solving conflict with love
About the challenge
[edit | edit source]Conflict, noncompliance, violence/crime, tension. Resolving conflict by massive love and appreciation, thus changing energies, attitudes, perceptions, self-identity and behaviour.
Description
[edit | edit source]When an individual member of the Babemba tribe harms the peace and unity of the community, this individual is put in the centre of the village and all community members gather around the person. All members then relate to the individual all the good things this person has done, and all the good characteristics (s)he has, in great detail. The ceremony can last for days, and has shown greatly effective in changing the behaviour of the 'wrongdoer', as well as aiding community harmony.
