Dialogues Across Differences is a three-day training series preparing individuals, communities, organizations, and coalitions that are enhancing their skills in facilitating conversations across profound differences of experience, social location, and understanding. How do we talk about race? gender? equity? Learn the skills necessary to facilitate dialogue through an approach that will strengthen the abilities you already have. Drawing on current research, ancient global wisdom teachings, Popular Education, Dialogue Education and theories of adult learning, we will practice shaping dialogue and engaging in productive conversations across differences in a way that strengthens us all.
