I have more than twenty five years of learning from my mistakes in more than 30 countries in Asia and Africa. I have observed courage and grace in the midst of conflict.

Key lines of inquiry in Jon's work at this moment are;

• the role of imagination in nonviolent approaches to conflict transformation;
• interconnection between individuals and the environment;
• the frequencies of subtle energies and mystery;
• detachment, observation and non-judgment in creating dialogue space.
