The purpose of this training is to provide hands-on advanced facilitation skills training men's behavior change program facilitators in Australia.  You will learn from Melissa Scaia, an international expert, author of international curricula and former director of "the Duluth Model", who has worked with domestic violence perpetrators for 21 years.  In this six-hour training we will work to enhance your facilitation skills by:
  • learning how to enhance victim safety in men's domestic violence behavior change programs,
  • addressing accountability while also building trust with the men,
  • deepening facilitators understanding of Paulo Freire's pedagogical approach to facilitation.  We will discuss:
    • Paulo Freire principles
    • Deeper understanding of dialogue
    • Problem posing questions
    • Exposing thinking and justifications for their violence
    • Exposing contradictions in their thinking
    • Posing critical thinking questions to the men
    • Opening up alternative possibilities for beliefs and non-violent actions.
You will connect with peers; learn practical engagement and facilitation skills for working with abusive partners; and strategize around ideas to create sustainable abusive partner intervention practices in your own community.
