"Jessie Sutherland is a visionary. Her work on reconciliation draws upon decades of international work for peace and justice, and compliments it with her synthesis of the most cutting edge-scholarly research in the fields of dispute resolution and intercultural dialogue. Like the great Zen Master, Thich Nhat Hanh, she is able to present profound and transformative insights, in simple, digestible format. As a result, those who attend her lectures and workshops leave feeling empowered, and equipped with practical tools that they can use to become instruments of transformation in their own communities."
