The role of the Nansen Peace Center is to facilitate conversations in a safe environment.<\/p>\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<div class=\"columns small-12 large-5 large-offset-1\">\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sub-page-hero__image\" src=\"https:\/\/peace.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/7-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n\n<p>Dialogue processes are a long-term engagement in a specific context and at a specific place \u2013 for example in a local community, at a workplace, or in a country. The purpose is to create change in ongoing and divisive conflicts. In dialogue processes, we work to improve communication despite disagreements and create a space for conversation where everyone feels that their voice is heard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike negotiation, the goal is not in itself to find solutions to the conflict. However, dialogue can create a new conversational climate and provide a better foundation for peaceful coexistence and possible solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sustainability<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>In a dialogue process, we most often assist actors who have a key role in the conflict. This can be national authorities and institutions, an organization, or individuals living in the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An important principle is that dialogue processes must be anchored with local actors so that the knowledge and experience remain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Building capacity<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>In many cases, dialogue processes can also include capacity building. Capacity building involves developing skills and willingness for dialogue. A concrete method is training in dialogical tools through courses and workshops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Capacity building can contribute positively to societal development and help build a robust dialogue culture that withstands the test of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Nansen Peace Center has experience with dialogue processes in many different contexts and at various levels: local, regional, and national. In the past, we have, among other things, provided guidance and support to organizations, institutions, local and national authorities, universities, and actors in civil society, both in Norway and internationally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>For more information, please contact our subject matter expert.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<section id=\"dc-post-grid-hand-picked-block_dcpg-6936c8bcb05bc\" class=\"block-section dc-post-grid-hand-picked dc-post-grid-base  align-full \" data-aos=\"\">\n\n\t\n<div class=\"grid-container\">\n\t<div class=\"grid-x grid-margin-x\">\n\t\t<div class=\"cell small-12\">\n\t\t\t<div id=\"dc_post_grid_dcpg-6936c8bcb05bc\" class=\"dc-post-grid-component-wrapper dc-fallback-content\">\n\t\t\t\t<header class=\"dc-post-grid-header\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"dc-post-top-left\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"section-title-default\">Contact<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"dc-post-top-right\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/header>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<noscript>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"dc-post-grid-results has-3-columns uses-no-image-card-fallbacks\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"dc-post-grid-results-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"grid-container full\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"grid-x grid-margin-x\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"cell\">\n\t<article id=\"dc_person_8743\" class=\"dc-post-grid-card dc-fallback-content person-card light-bg-theme has-shadow-mobile for-vue\">\n\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"toggle-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"person-overview toggle-title toggle-section-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"image-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2048\" height=\"2560\" src=\"https:\/\/peace.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Rapp-Odegaard-Anita-scaled-e1665412098776.jpg\" class=\"attachment-small size-small\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"person-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAnita Rapp\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"bio-link\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"#\" class=\"link read-more-link expand\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tRead more<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"person-bio toggle-content toggle-section-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"person-bio\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<dl>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<dt>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tEmail<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<dd><a href=\"mailto:mailto:anita@peace.no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tanita@peace.no<\/a><\/dd>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<dt>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tPhone<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<dd><a href=\"tel:tel:(+47)%20906%2070%20761\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t(+47) 906 70 761<\/a><\/dd>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/dl>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAnita is director at Nansen Center for Peace and Dialogue.
