*WHAT IS ZEGG FORUM: Forum is a tool that supports going beyond politeness and surface expression to the pulsing aliveness within.  Participants experience the freedom and permission to be who they are and allow others to witness them this way.  The trust and openness shared on a forum journey bonds and heals on individual, community, and collective levels.

*HOW IT WORKS: The goal of Forum is to reveal what is alive but not known to all.  The community sits in a circle, forming a stage for one person at a time to stand and show what is true for them.  Facilitators may assist the person (or "presenter") to reveal themselves more deeply. Afterward, community members may offer reflections, or "mirrors" on what they saw.  The ideal of Forum is to bring out the beauty of the person, revealing their highest potential.

*ROLE OF FACILITATOR: The facilitators play a major role in this process. They act as "midwives" to assist the authentic process which the presenter undergoes.  They are given the trust of the group to guide the process according to their experience and intuition. 

*WHO THIS TRAINING IS FOR: Forum facilitator training is for those drawn to serve community as a facilitator, and/or for those who wish to dive deeper into the forum process.  

 

* This will be an experiential training *
Practicing the role of facilitator in a learning container helps to:
