  A key finding within the PAVE project was that while efforts were being conducted to P/CVE, challenges around power relations and a lack of trust still negatively impacted all the work that was being generated by stakeholder groups. These challenges are interrelated, as all partners within your community P/CVE efforts must feel equally heard and have equal opportunities, including women, youth and marginalized groups.
  

  In order to promote inclusivity, you must also build trust, through creating a sense of belonging and a united purpose in the mission of your work. This includes ensuring you have respected leaders or community members who both represent these distinct intersectional groups, but who can also bolster your legitimacy amongst their peers.

  With your P/CVE efforts, you must create a safe space for dialogue for all and listen to the specific needs of your community, while ensuring no further harm is done within these discussions. Ensure all members of your initiative feel comfortable voicing their concerns and sharing their ideas, including offering multiple venues to voice their opinions, such as the use of digital platforms. Ensure that all members also have the space to talk and be heard, including not letting any one particular person or group dominate the conversations taking place. The process needs to be in the form of a dialogue, whether open (public) or closed dialogue (private).

  But what is dialogue? How does one facilitate or host dialogue sessions? The aim of dialogue is to share information, find mutual thoughts, and recognize existing links between different relations and various extents of cooperation. Dialogue is both a conversation and a way of relating and emphasizes listening, learning, and the development of shared understandings. Dialogue seeks to inform, rather than persuade. 

  Below are some key differences to help emphasize the difference between debate, discussion, and dialogue. Remember we are promoting dialogue.
