What is Sustained Dialogue?
Sustained Dialogue is a patented and adaptable peace process to transform difficult relationships and resolve conflict.
Do you want to create space for deep listening and new partnerships where you work, study, or live? The Sustained Dialogue Institute supports individuals and teams across the globe designing and leading local change processes. SD works with established and young leaders: especially those who can imagine new ways of interacting.
We define dialogue as “listening deeply enough to be changed by what you learn.”
