It invites a profound process of healing divisions across humanity. \n\n\n\nWhat to expect in a workshop designed for Christian communities:\n\n\n\nUsing the GERI process\, our journey will explore the often-muted attitudes\, fears\, shame\, and brokenness within patriarchal society. Through this exploration\, we begin to reclaim the mutual harmony\, respect\, and collaboration intended for men and women as God’s image bearers. \n\n\n\nAt the same time\, the GERI facilitation team will gently help you set aside daily demands so that we can create a safe space for attentive listening. In this setting\, we begin to unravel the truth of our gendered experiences. As a result\, compassion and understanding deepen\, and tangible pathways emerge that reimagine gender relations and move toward forgiveness\, healing\, and restored relationships. \n\n\n\nUltimately\, this unique Boston workshop invites Christian communities into a new form of spiritual healing and reconciliation. Together\, we will build trust and connection through interactive activities\, spiritual practice\, and transformative group process. \n\n\n\nFor more information\, email Michele Breene\, michelebreene@gmail.com \n\n\n\n\nRegister Today URL:https://www.genderreconciliationinternational.org/event/boston-workshop-for-christian-communities-online-in-person/ CATEGORIES:In Person,USA ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://www.genderreconciliationinternational.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Faith-and-Love-Always-5.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20260227T000000 DTEND;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20260228T235959 DTSTAMP:20260209T223703Z CREATED:20260207T053056Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260209T223703Z UID:14491-1772150400-1772323199@www.genderreconciliationinternational.org SUMMARY:TOGETHER WE HEAL - RESILIENCE WORKSHOPS DESCRIPTION:A resilience-building exchange between GERI\, Genderworks\, Chrysalis Academy & the Pocket Project\n\n\n\nCape Town\, South Africa\n\n\n\nThis 3-part in-person workshop is a collaborative exploration into what it means to build cultures of resilience within our communities and around the world. \n\n\n\nListening & Community Wisdom  \n\n\n\nFri\, 27 February:  11:00-13:30Pincushion Hall at Chrysalis Academy in Tokai \n\n\n\nA listening-centred gathering honouring the healing and resilience work already alive in our communities. \n\n\n\nPresentation & Community DialogueFri\, 27 February:  18:00-20:30Erin Hall in Rondebosch \n\n\n\nAn evening gathering offering a presentation on the Pocket Project’s resilience work\, followed by dialogue and shared inquiry. \n\n\n\nExperiential Learning & PracticeSat\, 28 February:  10:30-13:30Venue to be confirmed depending on numbers \n\n\n\nA workshop and sharing for those who wish to explore the work more deeply with practices from the Resilience Program & Global Social Witnessing. \n\n\n\nContact: Desireé Englishdesiree@grworld.org \n\n\n\n\nRegister for 11am workshop on February 27\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister for 6pm workshop on February 27 URL:https://www.genderreconciliationinternational.org/event/together-we-heal-resilience-workshops/ CATEGORIES:Free,In Person ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.genderreconciliationinternational.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/PDF-flyer-with-photo.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20260316T143000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20260316T160000 DTSTAMP:20260316T025348Z CREATED:20260128T195511Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260316T025348Z UID:14451-1773671400-1773676800@www.genderreconciliationinternational.org SUMMARY:Healing the Divide: Transformative Community Approaches to Gender Equity - New York City\, NY DESCRIPTION:In-Person at the United Nations Commission on the Status of Women NGO Forum\n\n\n\nNew York City\, New York \n\n\n\nMonday\, 16 March 2:30 pm – 4:00 pm\, EDT \n\n\n\nThis event offers a practical experience of Gender Equity and Reconciliation International’s (GERI) methodology\, which applies truth and reconciliation principles to gender and sexual injustice.

These are called “generation stage” practices in Tibetan Buddhism. As spiritual development advances\, it becomes important to also include practices that are “down and in\,” to awaken all the subtle energy centers in the human body\, which then becomes a living microcosm of the larger cosmos. \n\n\n\nThis retreat focuses on natural embodied practices\, drawn from eastern and western traditions\, that awaken the spiritual energy and vitality of the entire human body— which leads to experiencing daily life as living in a “body of joy.”  \n\n\n\nDrawing on dance\, breathwork\, art\, yoga\, movement\, and diverse spiritual disciplines\, join us as we reclaim our natural human birthright. \n\n\n\nContact: Garrett Evansgarrett@grworld.org+1-618-558-6560 \n\n\n\n\nRegister Here URL:https://www.genderreconciliationinternational.org/event/a-call-to-wholeness-the-alchemy-reconciliation-between-masculine-feminine-tavira-portugal/ CATEGORIES:In Person ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://www.genderreconciliationinternational.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Body-of-Joy-Image.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Asia/Kolkata:20260625T000000 DTEND;TZID=Asia/Kolkata:20260627T235959 DTSTAMP:20260624T112800Z CREATED:20260124T040023Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260624T112800Z UID:14408-1782345600-1782604799@www.genderreconciliationinternational.org SUMMARY:Women and Men Healing the Divide - Bangalore\, India DESCRIPTION:Private workshop June 25 – 27\, 2026 Bangalore\, India \n\n\n\nThe process creates a safe space for breakthroughs in individual transformation and community healing—by working skillfully with participants’ lived experiences in relation to gender and sexuality.

Using the unique approach of Gender Equity and Reconciliation (GER)\, this three-day workshop will bring together participants including from the fields of peacebuilding and mediation. \nThe GER approach is groundbreaking and participatory: it creates a platform for the sharing of personal stories and gender journeys among participants to transform the very roots of patriarchy in a way that reaches far beyond an ordinary workshop. The process provides a rare forum to jointly confront the personal\, social\,  historical\, and cross-cultural origins of gender oppression and exploitation\, and to reach mutual healing and understanding. Men are strongly encouraged and welcomed into Gender Equity and Reconciliation work\, which involves no “male-bashing”\, but instead inspires men to take part joyfully in dismantling patriarchy in society\, for the benefit of all humans. All sexual orientations and gender identities are welcome.  \nParticipants will be invited to share stories and participate in other experiential activities within a carefully-facilitated environment. This process delivers insights that contribute directly to shifting gender relations. New relational skills and a culture of deep respect and integrity between the genders are fostered\, fuelled by heightened mutual awareness of the gender conditioning experienced in our societies.
