Arts-based conflict engagement and creative coaching for organizations and individuals
The foundation of everything we do
The CCEM is a proprietary framework grounded in the principles of positive peace. It emphasizes long-term engagement, psychological safety, and the creation of shared creative outputs that extend learning beyond direct participants and into the broader community.
Unlike traditional conflict resolution approaches that treat conflict as a problem to be solved, CCEM reframes engagement as a sustained, relational process. The model integrates facilitated dialogue, creative practice, and community impact to produce tangible cultural artifacts—murals, photography exhibits, storytelling projects—alongside lasting organizational change.
Structured conversations that create space for authentic voice and mutual understanding
Creating environments where people feel safe to speak up, disagree, and contribute
Producing visible, lasting outputs—murals, exhibits, stories—that extend impact beyond the room
Extending learning and transformation into the broader community through shared creative work
Sustained, relationship-centered processes rather than one-time interventions
Building cultures of psychological safety, dialogue, and positive peace
Build speak-up cultures where team members feel safe to voice concerns, share ideas, and engage in productive disagreement. Our programs combine evidence-based frameworks with creative exercises that make safety tangible and sustainable.
Community murals, Photovoice projects, and visual storytelling initiatives that transform how groups engage with conflict. These methods produce both meaningful dialogue and visible creative artifacts that serve as lasting community touchstones.
Partner with leadership teams to assess, design, and implement culture transformation strategies. We help organizations move from reactive conflict management to proactive relationship-building grounded in the principles of positive peace.
