7-13th  April 2006 Socratic Dialogue Week in Wűrzburg:  Pre-Easter Programme

There were three Socratic groups (2 German-speaking;  1 English-speaking) . With  facilitators from four countries, giving this course a strong international flavour.

  •  The English-speaking group will be facilitated jointly by Mascha Solowjowa (Belarus) and Kirsten Malmquist (Germany) on "What is a justified action?"
  •  One of the German-speaking groups discussed a question about responsibility, facilitated by Armin Berger from Austria; 
  • the other’s topic deals with gaining an insight facilitated by Paolo Dordoni from Italy. 

All the facilitators have been trained by the German Society of Socratic Facilitators (GSP), which is increasingly contributing to the growth of SD in other countries.  GSP colleagues have worked in Belarus for several years.
