DIALOGUE IN ADULT LEARNING

The Dialogue In Adult Learning (DIAL) project aims to tackle the issue of social polarization. The DIAL project’s solution is a new dialogue model for adult learners, which any individual or organization can use. The DIAL project views dialogue skills as a vital life skill for democratic participation for all, also groups underrepresented in adult learning and democratic activity.

DIAL aims to reach the following results:
• An increasing number of Europeans have the skills and opportunities to engage in dialogue, and consequently have a greater sense of engagement
• Trainers, coordinators and other individuals working in educational institutions have the tools and an increased ability to engage people in dialogue in a variety of settings
• Dialogue skills are better understood as a basic life skill, especially as comes to adult learners.

DIAL ACTIVITIES
• Mutual learning activities for trainers, other stakeholders and partners
• Low-threshold dialogue activities among learners to engage them and help them acquire new skills
• Pilot training courses for adult educators and other promoters of dialogue
