Healing Together: Reconciling the Masculine and the Feminine
Cape Town, South Africa
August 13 – 14, 2026
9:00am – 4:30 pm daily
GERI and Genderworks, a locally based non-profit organization, are proud to collaboratively offer this workshop as part of the 2026 Artscape Women’s Humanity Festival. The GERI program is an experiential process that brings together men and women, and people of all sexual orientations and identities, to speak their truth and collectively confront gender injustice. Participants are invited to listen deeply to each other, speak their truth and collectively examine their social conditioning. In this way, they develop a mutual understanding of their social conditioning that leads to renewed hope for gender relations, and awakens new levels of mutual compassion, respect and understanding.
The GERI methodology is highly adaptable and has been applied within various contexts, such as universities, faith-based organisations and civil society. Across all these contexts, GERI deepens trust, renews hope and cultivates healthy and respectful relationships. The methodology is summarized in Martin Luther King Jr’s declaration “that injustice and corruption will never be transformed by keeping them hidden, but only by bringing them out into the light, and confronting them with the power of love”.
