"Attending the summit last year gave me the confidence to make a shift in my life. I've been exploring a whole range of body-based work, designed to deepen relationships and help me to feel comfortable in my own skin ... I now have the confidence to share my own learning journey of transforming conflict through movement."
- Liz Reitman, Peace Educator
