Seminars on Active Listening and Documentation Skills were conducted for the four women’s organizations in Minglanilla in April. Resource person Maria Antonella Codeniera, psychologist of the Vicente Sotto Memorial Medical Center (VSMMC) discussed about active listening and documentation skills in relating with survivors of women subjected to violence.
seminars talked about the importance of having good active listening skills, which means absorption of what other people are saying rather than just what one wants to or thinks they hear. It involves absorbing the information someone shares with another, and reflecting back—through questions and one’s body language—that, that someone was heard.
