Dialog Talks – When dialogue builds bridges. The bridge builders are turning 5.
The world has changed significantly in just the last five years. Wars have broken out, a pandemic has raged, artificial intelligence has taken off, and climate change has caused both floods and droughts.
Through all these changes, a clear idea and a small association have grown larger. In response to polarization and the sometimes hopeless world around us, we at Brobyggerne have brought people together to build bridges and create hope that we can do it. Together.
Many thousands of cups of dialogue coffee have been served, and more than 10,000 bridge builders have signed up to insist on dialogue. That is worth celebrating. That is why we are inviting you to the Bridge Builders' 5th birthday and open dialogue house on August 26.
Here, we look both forward and backward to gain a better understanding of the importance of dialogue and how things actually stand with division as a challenge and dialogue as the answer. Are the prospects ahead bright or bleak? Has dialogue gained ground or been forced back? And how should we view and understand the importance of conversation in a number of different areas?
Come and hear, among others, author and professor emeritus Ditlev Tamm talk about dialogue in the judicial system, author and former Secretary General of Danish Refugee Council Andreas Kamm on dialogue in emergency relief work, director Lisbeth Jessen on dialogue in violent relationships, teacher and conflict mediator Marianne Munis on dialogue, and Secretary General Özlem Cekic on dialogue coffee with disagreements.
