12th Aug 2009 London Flash PoD Training

The workshop will provide you with an overview of Flash PoD talks. An innovative way to set your agenda becoming a voice to be heard, understood and respected, because you learn to listen to understand and speak to share.

It is essentially a discussion among students (friends and foes), but they speak to each other, not over one another. It is facilitated and also captured by video and/or blog.

You will be introduced to two communication methods, active listening and reflective reframing and have the chance to practice it.

The workshop will then continue onto a discussion on a social, political or religious topic which will be chosen on the day by the group.

Previous flash pod talks have included:

"What's the problem with Muslim institutions?"
"Is there more than a unit between us?",
"Interfaith Marriages"
"Sarkozy's comments on the burkha"

The previous discussions have been a lot of fun and we expect this one to be the same inshallah.

We will also be joined by Gazelle Media who will be discreetly taking a few shots, though we won't use footage of you if you don't want us to.

This will be at a student's campus and it is something that is done out in the open, so if you are a student and you wouldn't mind us holding this at your campus get in touch. :-)

If you want more information, do get in touch.
