The Power of Connection: A PAX joint learning pilot with partners

This paper describes a courageous and innovative ‘joint learning pilot programme’. Over nine months spanning 2020 and 2021, PAX1 from the Netherlands and 12 interested partner organisations from Syria, Lebanon, Sudan, South Sudan, Iraq, and Palestine worked together on a shared learning process. The aim was to increase participants’ understanding of the theory and practice of non-violent movement building. INTRAC provided technical support to the process as a learning partner.
