A storytelling performance and interactive workshop as part of the REstART Festival by the European Forum for Restorative Justice

Dreams Longer Than the Night is a storytelling performance with true stories of inspiring women and peace education, one of them centered on the inspiring true story of Nobel Peace Prize winner Leymah Gbowee and her pivotal role in peace activism in Liberia. The performance highlights her journey of nonviolent resistance, social change, and the transformative power of collective action. This story offers a compelling example of courage, resilience, and restorative work on a national scale. Silvia Angel, storyteller and spoken word artist with a background in peace education and conflict transformation, will present this story in the form of a performance and facilitated dialogue session (90-min), inviting the audience to reflect on the lessons and insights from Gbowee’s remarkable journey.
