We are living in a world, characterized by conflicts between the nations, races, communities and ideologies that result in division, hatred towards others and even wars among nations and riots among communities. We are well aware of the adverse impact caused by the Ukraine-Russia conflict on entire world and especially on the vulnerable sections of our societies. If we have to achieve sustainable development goals, there is an urgent need to overcome the differences that are existing in our communities so that there is peaceful co-existence. It is being felt that this peaceful co-existence can only be achieved through a better knowledge of ourselves and our neighbours. Keeping this in mind, the United Nations (UN) has declared the year 2023, as the ‘International year of Dialogue as Guarantee of Peace, the focus being on, how to bring divided communities together through peaceful means of dialogue.
And even though dialogue is not a new concept, it has only recently been recognized as powerful tool for peace building.
