Not everyone is on a peace team, nor trained in to be. When activists find themselves in a place where conflict is escalating in unhealthy ways, even rudimentary training can help to calm the waters. While the gold standard deëscalation is CLARA, thoughtful groups have their own version to disseminate, including this one:
"BREATHE
Breathe. Ground. Notice your sources of support.
Remember The Humanity of All
Empathy Before Education
Ask First - Is the other person ready to hear your perspective? A is also for Authentic expression
BreaTHE. Debrief with Support"
