• Learn practical, life-long skills in reconciliation from our team at Coventry, focussing on Restorative Conversations and the widely followed Difference Course
• Consider our roles as reconcilers in the world today
• Share your own stories, and learn from those of others
• Build relationships through small group work
• Worship together in a variety of ways at opening and close of each day - thank you to our partner the Student Christian Movement!
• Have fun with others from around the world!
