About us
The Estonian Dialogue Academy is a place of encounter, inspiration and learning. We deeply believe in the power of thinking and talking together. This is why we teach dialogue and critical thinking skills, train dialogue facilitators and organisers, and promote more inclusive and interactive cultures of communication and participation. We collaborate with schools, NGOs, governments, local networks, businesses, politicians and the public.
