Proceedings of Celebrating Dialogue: An International Forum
On November 3rd, 2008 some 100 people gathered at Carleton University to celebrate the wisdom of dialogue. The Forum Celebrating Dialogue: An International SAS2 Forum, hosted by the SAS2 Community of Practice, Carleton University and the International Development Research Centre, showcased examples of collaborative inquiry and social engagement from around the world and in a variety of sectors. Collectively, these examples show how to support people-based and evidence-based dialogue, reflection and problem-solving in International Development, Workplace Engagement and Education. The proceedings also include a link to short interviews with participants and a Forum photo-gallery.
