Dialogue:
is a conversation with centre, not sides. It is a way of taking the energy of our differences and channeling it toward something that has never been created before. It lifts us out of polarization and into a greater common sense, and is thereby a means for accessing the intelligence and coordinated power of groups and people.

William Issacs, Dialogue and the Art of Thinking Together
 

Multiculturalism:
recognizing, valuing, and promoting the contributions of citizens of diverse cultural origins while being part of a larger society, which is built on the values of democracy, equality, and integrity of each person.
