National Dialogues at crossroads

This series analyses how to best integrate cross-cutting topics in the design of National Dialogues and how to meaningfully include specific societal groups.

National Dialogues have been increasingly recognised as a comprehensive tool for preventing violent conflicts and reaching inclusive political settlements. However, questions remain open on how to best integrate certain topics in the design of National Dialogues and how to meaningfully include specific societal groups. The series “National Dialogues at crossroads” aims at addressing this gap.

It compiles lessons learned and recommendations on three cross-cutting issues: climate change, digitalisation, and protest movements:
