Gender Equity and Reconciliation International (GERI) applies principles of Truth and Reconciliation to open new pathways to healing, respect, compassion, and genuine collaboration between men and women and, across the genders. Developed over 32 years and conducted with thousands of participants across six continents, the GERI process was formally endorsed by Archbishop Desmond Tutu in 2013.
This experiential three-day workshop 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. Together, women and men of all sexual orientations enter into a deeper understanding and mutual appreciation of their own experience and journey, and also awaken greater compassion, empathy, and understanding of others’ gender-based experiences and challenges.
Participants will be guided through an interactive and highly experiential process that includes personal reflection, small group interaction, silent meditation, somatic exercises, experiential honoring, and council process to explore and transform sensitive issues relating to gender and sexuality.
This unique program is an invitation into an inspiring journey of truth-telling, healing, and reconciliation, as together we share our experiences and explore the often sensitive issues of gender and sexuality in community, with compassion, respect, and deeper understanding.
