Orientation for convening dialogues

The purpose of these sessions is to help Convenors, and those working to support them, understand how to convene Dialogues as part of the United Nations 2021 Food Systems Summit.

The session covers the essential elements from start to finish to ensure your dialogue runs smoothly and can contribute to the outcomes of the summit.

This training will cover:

• how to prepare for your first Dialogue
• advice and guidance on attracting a diverse range of participants and ensuring they are included and able to fully contribute
• the support available through www.summitdialogues.org, including how to register and announce your dialogue
• reporting on the outcomes of your dialogue and how the outcomes are synthesised for the Food Systems Summit
