We believe in THE POWER OF DIALOGUE


Embrace Dialogue (“Rodeemos el Diálogo” in Colombia) is a transnational network of Colombians and friends of Colombia working to build an inclusive and comprehensive peace through the promotion of a culture of dialogue.

OUR PRINCIPLES

We follow six core principles, to set an example for a more empathetic and responsible society, both with other human beings and with nature:

  • Honesty

    to share what we think without being afraid that others will take advantage, for it is only with the truth that we can rebuild trust and overcome divisions.

  • Generosity

    to offer the best of ourselves, our time and understanding, knowing that the path to peace is neither easy nor straightforward.

  • Self-criticism

    being humble, knowing that mistakes are not only made by others and that we never stop growing.

  • Respect

    for others whether or not we share the same opinions and values, trying to understand without judgment why they feel and think the way they do.

  • Solidarity

    with all those fighting to end violence, putting ourselves in the shoes of others and helping as they need.

  • Co-responsibility

    knowing that to build peace we must come together with others.

OUR FIELDS OF ACTION

OUR LATEST NEWSLETTER

Every member of society has a unique perspective. When we seek to understand the beliefs and experiences of others, we build peace. From political analysts to entrepreneurs, authors to teachers, and officials from the Special Jurisdiction for Peace, our events in July brought together a mix of people to discuss peace and conflict in Colombia. On our podcast, academics explored the historical development of Colombia’s national narratives and armed actors. In our publications, we observed the challenges of reincorporation for FARC ex-combatants. Society, like the peace process, hosts a broad spectrum of people and ideas. To live side by side with difference, we must embrace dialogue.
