Sustained Dialogue is a peace process based on the work of Dr. Harold Saunders in entrenched conflicts. Students, communities, and workplaces use it daily.
In this action-focused model, dialogue is defined as “listening deeply enough to be changed by what you learn.”
Through proven peace processes, Sustained Dialogue Institute transforms how groups relate to unlock collective problem-solving.
