More about our speakers:
Over Zero is dedicated to supporting communities for preventing and rising above political and identity-based violence. We focus on the role of communications, including guidance for how to talk about political violence without feeding into its aims. Drawing from global case studies, this training will introduce strategies for violence prevention and response for leaders from diverse sectors.
Note: Over Zero is a 501(c)3 organization. This workshop is not intended to support or oppose any candidate for political office or any electoral outcome(s). What we will focus on is how to shape norms and narratives to create a less permissive environment for political violence.
