Vision

The Center for Nonviolent Communication pursues the vision of a world where:

  • everyone values everyone's basic human needs and lives from a consciousness that connects with the universal life energy and natural oneness of all life
  • every individual embraces self-compassion
  • people joyfully and compassionately contribute to each other and resolve conflicts peacefully
  • the systems and structures we create in economics, education, justice, healthcare, peace-keeping and other areas across our global interdependent community reflect that consciousness and evaluate their actions against their contribution to life and the human needs they ultimately serve
