Course Description: 

We will focus on the beauty of needs, i.e. that it is the needs that are connecting us across all cultures and appreciate the diversities of the strategies to meet them.
The intention is to bring people together from the North/West of our globe or maybe worldwide and from Rusinga Island, other parts of Kenya and maybe from other parts of Africa in order to.
1. learn how to live in daily life and spread NVC
2. connect people from different cultures, to get to know, share and appreciate the gifts of different cultures
3. create sustainable connections between participants to build an international community for mutual exchange and support
4. to support people living on the island in that we live with them and pay for accommodation and food (most of them are unemployed, there are many orphans due to aids. Many people experience hunger. With our contribution for accommodation and food we support families to get food for at least the time we are with them)
