Testimonials From Previous Workshops
I recommend this workshop for anyone serious about genuine dialogue, healing and reconciliation!
"I was inspired after taking Jessie Sutherland's workshop on "False and Genuine Reconciliation". What Jessie teaches is the basis for sustainable peace and development and is an affirmation of the "Doctrine of Ends and Means" which was the foundation of Mahatma Gandhi's revolution. Her exercises and teachings about "indicators for false reconciliation" confirmed for me that the reconciliation my friends and I have been striving to achieve for our people and conflict-torn region on the Indo-Myanmar border is rooted at the right depth and based on the right values and principles. I highly recommend this workshop for anyone serious about genuine dialogue, healing and reconciliation. The world needs such conviction, faith, and commitment."

Jessie Sutherland has a gift for generating "ah-ha" moments
"Jessie Sutherland has a gift for generating "ah-ha" moments. Her gentle questioning and invitation to go deeper into yourself provides a powerful means of transformation. I have benefited by moving toward healthier personal and professional relationships since my participation in her workshop on Mallard Island. Thanks, Jessie!"
Mary Swalla Holmes - Program Director - Mallard Island Jessie is a healing presence!
"It was on a remote island on the Minnesota-Ontario border that I was so fortunate as to experience Jessie Sutherland's Worldview workshop. Her involvement in conflict resolution has taken Jessie to far-flung, troubled places, and throughout the workshop her breadth of experience and depth of commitment informed the worldview concepts she introduced. We explored the nature of human-centered, Earth-centered, and God-centered world views, and I continue to be struck by how fully our planet's ongoing conflicts can be explained by differences contained in those world views. Jessie is a healing presence, and her vision does much to clarify the issues of a troubled world." Joe Paddock, USA - Author of Keeper of the Wild: The Life of Ernest Oberholtzer I left Jessie's workshop with greater understanding....at both the personal and political levels! Engaging and energetic, Jessie Sutherland personalizes global challenges through enabling a true understanding of reconciliation and conflict tranformation. I left her workshop with a greater understanding of how to bring about successful reconciliations at both the personal and political levels. Jessie's uncanny talent for teasing out self-realizations will undoubtedly transform your approach to resolving conflicts. Nabila Alibhai , Kenya
