For individuals

The Mighty Heart online introductory course

The Mighty Heart Introduction Course is now available as an entry level online course. The Mighty Heart programme, developed by 3 times Nobel Peace Prize nominee, Dr. Scilla Elworthy, distills decades of learnings from some of the toughest peace negotiations on the planet.

 

This 4 module course, adapted from our original 10-module programme, introduces skills and tools that unite mind and heart, utilising the intelligence of the heart to provide simple, effective and practical solutions to complex human problems.

 

This shorter course is designed to be a self led course providing key materials, videos and exercises to be worked through at your own pace. In addition you have the opportunity to join online workshops delivered by Mighty Heart facilitators to dive deeper into the topics and connect with other people who are taking the programme.

 

You can find the course overview below and more information & sign-up via The Mighty Heart Introduction

 

Fee Course Fee €175 per participant,  €75 for young changemakers.

 

An investment in The Mighty Heart is also an investment in supporting peacebuilding work around the world. By taking part in our courses you not only build the skills for you, but it also enables people in conflict zones to have access to our programmes by directly funding similar work for people living in countries in conflict. This Introductory Course is offered in partnership with Planetir and 10% of all proceeds will go to the Planetir Impact Fund to advance community-selected impact initiatives.

  • A way to change your inner critic into a wise guide
  • The skill to use anger as a fuel for transformation
  • The sense of your own strong presence to call on in a crisis
  • A way to develop intuition as a wise guide in making decisions
  • Enlargement of your capacity to speak truth to power
  • The skill to take a stand on an issue you care about and be fully heard

It takes us on a journey with a series of exceptional teachers and peacebuilders who lead us into an exploration that reveals huge possibilities for our personal discovery and development. It was so rich and I would take it again in a heartbeat.”

“Words cannot express what my time in the Mighty Heart Course has meant to me. The combination of the facilitators, the speakers and the assignments were perfect. The participants connected in a way that surprised me given that the course was online. The sessions were intense and thought-provoking, but everyone was open and willing to share and listen without judgement. This made for a very enriching experience. The course has made me very aware of my place in the world, the role I play and how my words and actions can affect those around me. I can feel the change within me. I also am eternally grateful to have made a connection with some very special people. People that I hope I will remain in touch with for a very long time. I feel privileged to have experienced the Mighty Heart.”

– Priti Sesha, Finance & Operations Director, Oxford Research Group
