Workshop

Dealing with Polarisation - Dialogue Community

Polarisation is a hot topic. People seem to be divided and debates escalate. While polarisation seems undesirable, that is not necessarily the case. But it is valuable to understand its dynamics when conflicts arise and be aware of ways to depolarise – if that’s your aim. Learn to recognise the poles and to navigate between them.

WUR developed this workshop together with polarisation expert Bart Brandsma and gives you insights in how polarisation works, with a focus on mechanisms and roles in a polarised debate. There is a possibility to subsequently follow a 3-hour in-depth workshop that helps you to deal with a concrete polarised debate which makes you reflect on your own role. Let us know if you’re interested.

By being in connection through good conversations, we can truly contribute to complex transitions. This monthly dialogue community meet-up helps to increase your dialogue knowledge and skills.

Anyone working or studying at WUR can join the community or join any of these individual meet-ups. Registration is not needed but appreciated (by sending an email).
