Alternatives to Violence Project (AVP) Britain

AVP Britain runs workshops, online and face to face, for anyone in the community and in prisons who wants to find ways of building better relationships and dealing with conflict more positively. Participants can either join one of our community workshops, or we can organise bespoke group workshops in partnership with organisations/community groups.

We understand conflict is a natural and normal part of life and that it is possible to learn new ways of handling it. Our workshops cover listening and communication, self-esteem, cooperation, understanding anger, building trust, community building, problem solving and conflict resolution. Participants are guided by trained facilitators and learn from one another through group activities, discussion and role-play, drawing on real-life situations and exploring a range of non-violent and non-abusive resolutions.

The workshops help to increase the respect we have for ourselves and others.
