Workshop: C.H.I.L.L. Out, Lean In

This interactive workshop will help students build the confidence and skills to handle conflict effectively and authentically. Focusing on situations common in university life, participants will explore why conflicts arise and how to address them constructively. Students will learn practical strategies for problem-solving, while putting them into action through scenario-based role-play. The workshop highlights active listening, emotional regulation, and de-escalation techniques, all supported by the “C.H.I.L.L.” framework for navigating challenges and turning disagreements into productive dialogue.

Schedule a C.H.I.L.L. Out, Lean In workshop here.
