WHAT IS INTERGROUP DIALOGUE?

Intergroup Dialogue is an education model that brings together people from multiple social identity groups to form relationships, explore differences and commonalities of experience, engage in difficult conversation, and support in the transition from dialogue to action. This model goes beyond creating a space for dialogue, student engagement, relationship building, and conversations. It allows facilitators to move workshop content beyond the university/local setting, and provide tools/strategies for diversity, equity, and inclusion.

WHY SHOULD I PARTICIPATE IN A SEED WORKSHOP?

Nagda, Gurin, Sorensen, & Zuniga (2009) identified three key learning outcomes for students that engage in Intergroup Dialogue: “(1) explore their social identities and critically examine structural inequities, (2) develop meaningful cross-identity relationships, and (3) apply content and process learning to promote alliance building and social action” (Ford, 2018).
