NGL Introduction Calls
These 2-hour intensive dips on different topics are offered each month, covering the entire range of what we engage with within NGL, from the most intimate aspects of individual living to grappling with questions about global governance.
These monthly opportunities to learn the NGL framework are the sum total of Miki’s work since 1995 including the co-creative learning that has been happening since NGL came into existence in 2017.
They were offered by Miki Kashtan until 2025 and now by others within NGL at rotating times, to make them accessible to people in more parts of the world. You can learn more and register here.
Weaving Togetherness Lab
An intensive facilitation training for realigning humanity with life
The purpose of the Weaving Togetherness Lab is ‘to continuously nurture the capacities needed for weaving togetherness everywhere we are as we take our next bold steps to apply what we learn within and beyond the lab.’
The primary form that we intend learning to take is live, emergent, and dialogical by role playing situations and facilitation from a small group of practitioners within the WTL Core Group who will be coached.
You can learn more and register here.
Nonviolent Activism for Liberation
These calls are offered monthly and are an opportunity for people who are yearning for companionship to immerse deeply in the experience of nonviolence and the rigor of its implications for activists.
They are offered by Miki Kashtan. You can learn more and register here.
Responding to the Call of Our Times: A Leadership Coaching Course
This is a yearlong course that is an opportunity for deep dive into what it means to step into the fullness of our power to act as leaders in times of great peril for humanity and all life. Participants are from all over the globe. By the end of the year in 2025, we had nearly 300 participants registered, of whom typically between 80-100 people participated live each Friday.
This may seem like a lot, and yet the sense of community and intimacy is palpable.
This has been offered by Miki Kashtan annually since 2017. You can learn more and register for the 2026 course here.
NVC Q&A Series with Miki Kashtan and NGL community in collaboration with Emphatic Way Europe
In this monthly NVC Q&A series, live questions are doorways into shared learning experiences that can bring both depth and breadth to the study of NVC.
Come with a question or simply to listen and learn from the explorations that emerge from others’ questions.

Supporting Others’ Liberation (SOL) Lab
An experiential lab focusing on the NGL approach to supporting liberation.
Within NGL we aim to focus on liberation from all forms of social oppression, including in particular the core patriarchal structures (such as exchange-based economies and social stratification more generally) emerging from scarcity, functioning in separation, and resulting in powerlessness. Beyond the “from” element of liberation, we also see a “to”, based on a longing for all of us to reclaim our full humanity individually and realign with life collectively.
We imagine that within this lab we will experience together what supports this movement and what we can concretely do to create such openings for liberation.

Liberating Our Capacity to Engage in the Gift Economy
Noticing and Coholding Scarcity, Separation, and Powerlessness
Sept 2026 – October 2027 with Selene Aswell and Alper Süzer
Practicing the gift economy while living in a world based on exchange and extraction, backed up by systemic violence, is extremely challenging. Practicing the gift economy as an individual is even harder.
This course comes from 7 years experience in designing and participating in Financial Gift Hubs within NGL. Over the years, Selene Aswell and Alper Süzer have observed the ways patriarchal conditioning is revealed by stepping out of the exchange economy, even as this conditioning continues to perpetuate our reliance on the exchange economy.
Join us as we explore areas of liberation we have found that support us to live the gift economy while staying present in the world as it is!
By deepening our understanding of how scarcity, separation, and powerlessness shows up within practices of the gift economy, and by sharing how to support each other’s liberation within a Liberation Pod, we believe people who take this course can increase capacity to actually practice the gift economy– both within NGL and beyond.

Witnessed Accompaniment + Q&A with Sarah Peyton
This monthly series starting in April is a collaboration between Sarah Peyton and the Nonviolent Global Liberation (NGL) community with the dual focus of offering support to people taking on significant leadership within NGL and an opportunity to learn from Sarah about how she accompanies people.
During the first hour of each session, the plan is for Sarah to offer her unique wisdom and embodied knowledge as accompaniment to someone within NGL. During the second hour, everyone witnessing is invited to ask questions about the process(es) Sarah used in the first hour and her choices in offering support.
Global Sisterhood from the Ground Up
‘Global Sisterhood from Ground Up’ is a self directed learning program created for women from marginalised groups, designed to offer concentrated resources to women who specifically see the NGL approach as a path to individual and collective liberation that they want to be part of and support.
This program is based on the premise that supporting women’s leadership in the areas of liberation and nonviolence is a revolutionary path towards a livable future, because of the specific ways that the subordination of women has been integral and primary to patriarchy.
