We host dinners, now zoom, on controversial topics with people who have opposing views, with the aim of having a dialogue. It's about the relating rather than the debating.

We create a safe space for all views to be heard.

Our aim is not for them to agree, but to understand each other.

We don’t take sides.

We believe that we need more spaces where opposing perspectives can co-exist and maybe learn from each other.

    In order to create a less polarised, more empathetic world we host dinners on hot topics that are currently dividing people. The aim is to enable a dialogue, with all parties seeking to understand, as well as to be understood.

    In this episode we have invited one guest to share why they chose to have the Covid-19 vaccine and one who explains why they refused to have it.

    It makes for a fascinating conversation, give it a listen now. It could become a model for how you tackle conversations with people in your life.
