Peter F. Schmid, The Austria Program, English

to experience and learn the person-centered approach and its social implications "in action"
to better understand yourself and others and to enlarge your behavioral repertoire
to encounter the diversity of people of different age, sex, origin, education, profession and culture
to find out the conditions for collective ways of decision-finding and self-guided learning
to learn to understand and further the development of small and large groups and intergroup relations
to learn and practice the art of facilitating groups

Since 1978 the Austria Programm has been offering a unique opportunity to see classical person-centered work, to develop yourself as a person and to learn personal and political ways of influencing both, your relationships and society. (Languages: German and English)
