The roots of the word dialogue come from the Greek words dia and logos . Dia mean 'through'; logos translates to 'word' or 'meaning'. In essence, a dialogue is a flow of meaning . But it is more than this too. In the most ancient meaning of the word, logos meant 'to gather together', and suggested an intimate awareness of the relationships among things in the natural world. In that sense, logos may be best rendered in English as 'relationship'. The Book of John in the New Testament begins: "In the beginning was the Wrod ( logos )". We could now hear this a "In the beginning was the Relationship."
...we speak of dialogue as the outer counterpart to the inward cultivation of moment-to-moment non-judgmental awareness, or mindfulness.... No one needs to dominate in a dialogue, and indeed, it would cease being a dialogue at that point if one person or group attempted to control it. We watch the arising of and listen to the voicing of ideas, opinions, thoughts and feelings, and drink them all in in a spirit of deep inquiry and intentionality, much as we do in resting in awareness in formal meditation practice, allowing it all to be treated as equally valid of at least being seen, heard and known without editing, censoring, vetting, or rejecting. A greater intelligence that seems to reside in the group but is not in any one person often emerges, surprisingly, and with it a deeper collective understanding as a direct consequence of such spaciousness and openheartedness.
...the need for inclusive forms of sustained and civil dialogue has become paramount... By this we mean inter-group and interpersonal conversations in which those present are granted an equal voice at the table, regardless of their formal status within the institution. And those at the table need to be engaged for a length of time sufficient to interrogate, deliberate and communicate. By consciously moving away from the win-lose model of traditional debate to a more equitable, safe and sustained approach to problem-solving, we can foster both ethical principles and democratic governance.
addressing problems, and questioning thoughts and actions. It engages the heart as well as the mind. It is different from ordinary, everyday conversation in that dialogue has a focus and a purpose.... Dialogue, unlike debate or even discussion, is as interested in the relationship(s) between the participants as it is in the topic or theme being explored. Ultimately, real dialogue presupposes an openness to modify deeply held convictions.

Building on that strong foundation, the United States and the United Kingdom announced today the launch of a new Comprehensive Dialogue on Technology and Data. The annual dialogue will be led by senior level representatives in the U.S. Departments of State and Commerce and the UK Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office and Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport. In the coming year, the Dialogue will focus on three areas: Data, Critical and Emerging Technologies, and Secure and Resilient Digital Infrastructure.

Are you or your community affected by HIV, tuberculosis or malaria? The Global Fund needs your help in stepping up the fight against the three diseases. Your participation in country dialogues can help the programs we support work better for you and your community.
Connect with the Country Coordinating Mechanism (CCM) in your country. They are responsible for coordinating an inclusive country dialogue process for the development of the funding request and can let you know where, when and how the country dialogue will take place.
CCMs include representatives from many different parts of society. When you contact the CCM, find out if a national organization is already representing your interests and the interests of your community on the CCM. If not, ask the CCM if you can speak for your community in the country dialogue.
Connect with support organizations which can help prepare your organization for the country dialogue. The Community, Rights and Gender Technical Assistance Program can help connect you with organizations that will work with you to get involved with Global Fund related processes. This support might include community consultations, data analysis, program planning and proposing, or implementation oversight and monitoring. For example, a CCM addressed feedback from the Technical Review Panel by having a provider of Global Fund technical assistance undertake a mapping exercise of civil society organizations, networks of key and vulnerable populations, and coalitions of people living with HIV, and then develop a strategic framework on community systems strengthening.
Being able to share these experiences will be crucial during country dialogue. These stories will be made even stronger if you use data to place them within the epidemiological context in your country.

The Institute for Transformative Dialogue works to cultivate a culture of dialogue, inclusion, and equity across campus and the world. Our approach is grounded in intergroup dialogue, an empirically-supported critical pedagogy that fosters critical understanding, communication, and collaborative action across social group inequities.
Student leaders working with the Institute collaborate with faculty and staff to facilitate critical dialogues about oppression, privilege, and justice inside and outside the classroom. We support intergroup dialogue courses offered to all CMU students through the Intergroup Relations and Justice program. Students seeking applied leadership learning opportunities can be dialogue facilitators in intergroup dialogues across race, gender, and other dimensions of inequity.
