Online Dialogue: Does the activity of the Catholic Church “bear good fruit” in Poland?
In December 2020, a group of male and female inhabitants of different parts of Poland met to participate in a community dialogue. Some of them had participated in earlier dialogues in Sieradz and Żyrardów. The group decided to talk about role of the Catholic Church in Poland and discussed "whether it bears good fruit."
What is a ”community dialogue”?
Community dialogues are our way of working to reduce the polarization of public opinion. We organize them in various places in Poland, and as well as - due to the ongoing pandemic - online. We invite people to a meeting, we connect strangers and create conditions conducive to candid conversations. The goal of community dialogues is not compromise, but respecting differences and finding what unites us. Along the way, we look for a new way of having a national conversation in a divided Poland.
