How to Resolve Conflict Cooperatively

An Interview with Paul Kahawatte

March 26, 2026

What does it look like to handle conflict well? 

This month Punchcard’s guest is Paul Kahawatte, a member of Navigate and an experienced mediator working with communities, cooperatives, and social movements. In my interview with him, he shares the structures and processes he uses to ward off conflict, catch it early, and resolve it in ways that strengthen, rather than fracture.
