How to Use Dialogue? Get Started
Wageningen Dialogues encourages researchers, students and partners to enter into dialogue with each other, accompanying stakeholders, and society. You are the ones to find answers together! This can be relevant to determine the right research question, or to increase understanding for someone who thinks differently, to broaden your view on a societal issue or just to get inspired by a unique perspective on your problem. Sometimes, a dialogue can soften a social debate, but also bring stakeholders together and take follow-up steps together. We invite you to explore how you could use dialogue to realise the impact you are aiming for. Also get to know our lively learning community or facilitators pool for training and support.

Training & Support
Are you concerned about a societal debated issue, but hesitant how to have a constructive conversation? Can your research topic benefit from a diversity of ideas and actors, but looking for support to create the right space to connect? Or do you wish to develop your own dialogue, listening or facilitating skills and connect with inspiring likeminded colleagues and students? Check the training & support of Wageningen Dialogues.
