Intergroup Dialogue

Intergroup dialogue is a critical practice that invites people to explore issues of difference through facilitated meetings. It encourages listening and voicing across social and cultural divides, fosters shared understanding and learning, engages social identities, and cultivates social justice commitments. It is intended to inspire collaborative action against social inequities, reimagine what is possible, and forge critical connections within and across communities.

IGD is a crucial part of social justice education, but it may be used in any educational setting to encourage conversations and critical connections in order to create change in a community.
