Hi,
The world seems more polarized than ever. Conversations quickly turn into confrontations. Instead of enriching us, differences become barriers. Controversies and debates dominate, dialogues are becoming rare.
At La Converse, we decided to take the opposite view of this reality. For four years, we have been making a bet: that dialogue journalism can bring people together. That telling the stories of marginalized communities and creating spaces for exchange can make a real difference.
Dialogue is not about debating to convince or win. It's about fostering mutual understanding and building relationships. Where controversy seeks to triumph, dialogue creates a space for listening, empathy and shared understanding.
Dialogue journalism is what is needed!
This type of journalism requires time, dedication and resources. But it is the bet we are making in our reports, our dialogue evenings, the meetings we organize and the Converse schools.
Each article we publish is an attempt to highlight the complexity of the stories, without ever betraying our commitment or the truth and humanity of each story. The events we organize, such as our dialogue evenings, aim to bring together voices that are too often ignored. We believe that these initiatives can have a huge impact in a world that seems to be increasingly fragmented and polarized.
