Collective dialogue organizers

Related Who-Hows

  • Simulate participation Collective dialogue organizers can run processes with simulated participants, though more research is needed to resolve their fidelity.
  • Curate context Collective dialogues can have a short introductory module with subject matter fundamentals to quickly ground participants in the details. These short learning dialogues are constructed in collaboration with commissioning authorities.
  • Activate learning Collective dialogues can have a short introductory module with subject matter fundamentals to quickly ground participants in the details. These short dialogues are interactive and allow participants to learn from one another as well as read background information.
  • Aggregate perspectives Collective dialogue tools such as Polis use bridging algorithms to cluster inputs, and Remesh uses elicitation inference to help identify bridging statements across a large number of inputs. Some online systems may not surface consensus or bridging, but instead simply log the inputs of various participants.
  • Routing and synthesizing Collective dialogue tools such as Polis and Remesh are designed to synthesize across many points of view with bridging algorithms and elicitation inference.
