Help bring Dominic from Sierra Leone to NZ Nonviolent Communication International Intensive Training

Wow! This guy really got to my heart…

Kia ora koutou - Hi everyone!

I'm Jocelyn from Aotearoa New Zealand. I got to know Dominic through my role as one of the organisers for November’s Nonviolent Communication (NVC) 9 day intensive in Christchurch NZ.

I am so moved by Dominic, his life, his vision, and his enthusiasm to attend this training, that I decided to set up this fundraiser to see if together we can support him to come, even though time is so short!

His dream is to make NVC accessible to all people in West Africa. You can see some of the amazing work he is doing at https://dcncdsierraleone.org/.

I’m blown away by what he and his colleagues are achieving against all odds. Having been a war child, Dominic is now dedicating his life to the empowerment of women, youth and children.

NVC is such a vital skill in this war-devastated region.

NVC training is difficult to access in West Africa, and very few Sierra Leoneons can afford to travel to learn.

Dominic is determined to make it possible for people to learn at home.

Tragically, Gert Danielson, NVC trainer from Norway, namesake and main mentor for this project, died suddenly in May this year. This was a deep loss for Dominic, both personally and for the mission.

Dominic is determined to continue Gert's legacy and their dream to spread NVC.

Coming to NZ for this training will be a significant step on his journey and his capacity to fulfill the dream.
