Dialogues
Dialogues are an immersive, facilitated process designed to build relationships and trust between diverse groups of people, such as students and their teachers or at-risk youth and law enforcement officers. The purpose is to provide a venue for participants to share stories and experiences that allow for enhanced understanding, greater trust and stronger connections. Dialogues often serve as an entry point to address challenges and/or conflicts, among groups that may have negative views of one another due to societal conflict and/or imbalances of power. During this half-day experience participants will have conversations that encourage the “humanization” of those they may see as “others.”
