The Global Dialogue Collective
A community committed to advancing dialogue in the world.
We are a global and dynamic community of dialogue practitioners, each responding in our own way to different challenges, problems and needs in our respective communities. Our world is in conflict, fueled by a human values crisis, the absence of critical (self-) reflection, and our growing inability to communicate with one another, across differences. We view dialogue as a transformative tool that holds the potential to engage minds, hearts and souls, to expand our understanding and build our capacity for compassion, coexistence and humility. Our Collective is a learning community that supports, inspires and challenges each other in our dialogic practices around the world, with the conviction that each dialogue encounter inches us closer to a more peaceful world.
PROGRAMS
Global Dialogue Collective focuses on advancing the quality and impact of dialogue, strengthening our capacity for self-reflection, critical thinking, and empathy, and bring these skills to others. We provide an international forum for mutual inspiration, support, challenge, and development.
Through periodic workshops, member-driven discussions, open forums, online engagement, experts sharing their innovations, and active exchanges, GDC curates an exciting dialogue-driven online environment. Each online encounter will be announced in a timely fashion on our social media channels and mailing list, describing the thematic focus of the gathering, as well as its format.
The following are examples of programs that GDC has hosted in the past, and will continue to evolve with you- our members’ input- in the future. Being a collective, we continue to experiment and refine these with your feedback and engagement. Community members help shape the agenda and serve both as experts and as learners. These learning together sessions are free and open to all who are engaged with or simply curious about dialogue.
