What is Nonviolent Communication - NVC

Nonviolent Communication (NVC) is a practical, learnable process based on universal human values that helps people connect more deeply with themselves and others. It promotes congruency with one’s values in thought, speech and action.

The purpose of NVC is to create a quality of connection where everyone’s needs are equally valued and to come up with strategies to meet those needs - a practice that contribute to connection, harmony and peace.

Rosenberg developed Nonviolent communication on the base of Carl Rogers' humanistic psychology and on his experiences of mediation in high-conflict areas all over the world.

Today, there are hundreds of thousands of practitioners and around 700 certified trainers all over the globe, organised and supported by the Center for nonviolent communication. People are using the skills provided by NVC in various contexts: from personal relationships to a business setting, school systems, NGOs, activism, restorative work in jails, municipalities, police, community setups, mediation …
