KILN program
Knowing ourselves
Inspiring social change
Leading the way
With NVC
A Program to provide support, community, feedback and assessment to individuals working towards
certification as NVC Trainers.
“Imagine that you, in your current journey of integrating and sharing NVC, are like a clay pot. The clay pot has form and shape, but is missing the final transformation needed to hold water and fulfill its purpose.
You are looking for your own process of fire; a process that brings together what you offer - your uniqueness, passion for change, knowledge and skills - with the support of structure, experience, collaboration, commitment and connections.
This is the vision for KILN: to fire and inspire you to be a powerful vessel in the world.”
KILN is for Individuals that are:
change-makers, active in social organizations, groups, or enterprises
contributing towards the kind of world they long for through nonviolence and compassion
wanting to share NVC with others and looking for the support to do so
contributing and offering Compassionate Communication workshops and are pursuing certification
finished with the on-paper requirements for certification, and are looking for support in pulling it all together and integrating the knowledge with your way of being and showing up in the world.

What is KILN?
KILN is an experiential program that offers structure, accompaniment and a deep dive into living, integrating and sharing NVC. At the moment, KILN is purely offered online with a small group of fellow learners. It is supported by experienced Certified Trainers, KILN members from previous years and Assessor Angela Walkley.
KILN brings forth the unique offering of each individual while providing rigour in ensuring the integrity of NVC is upheld.
KILN supports each individual’s integration and unique expression of NVC, to explore NVC-based approaches to creating social change, and to assist candidates to complete the CNVC requirements for Certification.
