In this inspirational talk, Douglas Noll, a nationally recognized speaker and full time peacemaker and mediator specializing in difficult, complex and intractable conflicts, will lead attendees on a journey of peacemaking through the stories of some powerful peacemakers:  from Alissa Sears, who responded to the post-tsunami disaster relief in Sri Lanka, to Kimmie Weeks left for dead at 9 years old in a Liberian refugee camp, to the remarkable story of murderers becoming peacemakers.  Doug will demonstrate how every person has the power to be a peacemaker and that mediating is not all about settling cases but rather the profound effect mediators have on the world if they choose to do so.
