Bala's actions
Justice for the Whole Community
Define Justice
Using the guidelines on page 46, I will work with my group to draft a two to three sentence definition of justice that we can agree to use for the rest of this course.
Understanding Systems through Conflict Transformation
Living in the Doughnut
Using the guidelines on page 68, I will use the Oxfam “doughnut” diagram to consider how the factors in the inner circle have affected my personal well-being, or what their absence would mean for my life.
Peace Talks
Recognize Manipulative Communication Tactics
This week, I will spend 60 minutes learning more about gaslighting, tone policing, and/or microaggressions so that I can avoid them in my own communication.
Understanding Systems through Conflict Transformation
Research Restorative Justice
I will spend 60 minutes this week learning about restorative justice and conflict resolution opportunities in my own community or state.
Peace Talks
Communicate Constructively
I will use the communication methods I read about this week to practice effective, compassionate, and nonviolent communication with someone I interact with regularly: my roommate, my parents, my co-work, my partner, my classmates, or my children.
Responding to Systemic Violence
Support Native Communities
I will use the resource links provided and spend 60 minutes learning about the native populations that lived in my area prior to colonization, and what I can do to support those that still exist.
Participant Feed
Reflection, encouragement, and relationship building are all important aspects of getting a new habit to stick.
Share thoughts, encourage others, and reinforce positive new habits on the Feed.
To get started, share “your why.” Why did you join the challenge and choose the actions you did?
