Mediator Roundtable

As mediators we are trained to listen for interests beneath positions, but what about the needs beneath the conflict itself? Join AAMS and Aya Caspi to explore how Nonviolent Communication (NVC) can complement existing mediation approaches and offer fresh perspectives on empathy, connection and conflict transformation.

About Aya:

Aya Caspi brings her unique blend of vision, practical clarity, and deep commitment to the transformative power of Nonviolent Communication to settings as varied as schools, parenting, couples counseling, mediation, nonprofit organizations, social change communities, and media.
Aya has served as an educational consultant on several preschool series, creating original curricula and advising on show development and scripting. Her client list includes Warner Bros., Discovery Media, 9 Story Media Group, Cartoon Saloon, Field Day Entertainment, the Cartoon Network, and Max.
Aya has been sharing the work of NVC internationally via online classes and in-person retreats. She continually grapples with the joys and challenges of being raised in Israel and finds deep open hope in applying NVC to the context of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
