Activity: Sharing Feelings

This activity, called Open Listening, provides a simple framework to help a group of people listen to a range of views on a divisive issue.

By enabling a complex picture of different views to emerge Open Listening
creates the possibility for participants to see their own views in a wider context, without getting trapped in fruitless argument or having to seek agreement.
