The Empty Space

Civil Dialogue ® is a unique format that provides facilitated dialogues on “hot topics.” The format was designed in 2004 by John Genette in the Hugh Downs School of Human Communication at Arizona State University and continues to be developed by Jennifer Linde, Clark Olson, and other scholars. The goal of Civil Dialogue is to foster civil spaces for productive dialogue. Diverse positions and identities are welcome and the goal is to acknowledge and understand differences, not necessarily to achieve agreement or consensus.
