Nineteen men from seventeen countries gathered at Egmond aan Zee, Netherlands, in December 2009 for a Training of Trainers workshop on "Gender-sensitive Active Nonviolence: exploring masculinities, violence and peacebuilding'. Among these 19 was INNATE coordinator, Rob Fairmichael. A second training, with the same group, took place in Manila, Philippines, in July 2010.
A full report on the first training appears on the INNATE website at
