Dear rebels!
We are XR’s Confidential Counsellors ('trust persons') and provide support fo
Consider, for example, issues such as bullying, gossiping, (sexual) intimidation, discrimination, exclusion and aggression. This can take place in real life or online.
Basically anything that makes you think: hey, is this right? Or something that gives you an unpleasant gut feeling can be discussed with us.
What qualifies as undesirable behavior depends per person and per situation. It is determined by the 'receiver'. So it is not important how it was intended, but how it is perceived.
Not only people that are a target of undesirable behavior, but also bystanders that are witness of behavior that they deem as possible undesirable can contact us, for instance to talk about possible actions or just to vent concern.
A conversation is without obligation and confidential.
First of all, we offer a listening ear and then, if you wish, we will think along with you about possible next steps.
We are not intermediaries and do not take over cases: the reporting person stays in control. However, we can support rebels in taking the right steps and finding a solution. For example, consider preparing for and attending a difficult conversation, or, if necessary, a referral to another circle that supports rebels, such as the therapists or the conciliation circle.
You can contact the Confidential Counsellors via XR-TrustPersons@protonmail.com or in the Mattermost channel https://organise.earth/xr-netherlands/channels/trust-person-working-group .
We will contact you quickly.
In case you're active as Confidential Counsellor yourself at another organisation and interested in our pool of Confidential Counsellors for XR: please also contact us, for example to talk about becoming active in our pool.
