El vicepresidente ejecutivo del Consejo de Rectores, Juan Manuel Zolezzi, señaló que “la principal motivación del CRUCH por patrocinar el manual es propiciar el diálogo que dice relación con generar las condiciones para la confianza cívica y de paz en la convivencia social, a fin de alcanzar una democracia más justa e inclusiva”.

El manual está disponible para descarga gratuita en la web del Consejo de Rectores (Publicaciones).

The Nansen Manual for Dialogue and Conflict Transformation Facilitators is the result of the peace education work that the Nansen Center for Peace and Dialogue has developed since its inception in 1994 in more than 10 countries.

En el actual contexto de nuestro país este manual busca ser una herramienta para construir confianzas, mejorar las relaciones en situaciones de conflicto y aportar a una sociedad más dialogante y conciliadora. Está disponible para descarga gratuita en la web del CRUCH (sección Publicaciones), en this link.

“The manual is published at a time when Chile is experiencing significant levels of conflict and tension, where once again, as happened at the beginning of the transition, our vocation for understanding is being put to the test. Tools like this will undoubtedly help advance processes that allow for the construction of fair and lasting agreements ”, commented the rector of the UAH, Eduardo Silva SJ.

Social coexistence and dialogue

El vicepresidente ejecutivo del Consejo de Rectores, Juan Manuel Zolezzi, señaló que “la principal motivación del CRUCH por auspiciar el manual es propiciar el diálogo que dice relación con generar las condiciones para la confianza cívica y de paz en la convivencia social, a fin de alcanzar una democracia más justa e inclusiva”. Agregó que el manual “será un valioso aporte para las comunidades universitarias de las 30 instituciones del Consejo de Rectores y también, esperamos que sea una contribución para diversas instancias de la sociedad civil a lo largo del país”.

"In many places there is confusion about what dialogue is and we think that this manual can be useful for the challenges of Chile today," said Alfredo Zamudio, director of the Nansen Center for Peace and Dialogue. "Dialogue is a form of communication that offers time and space for people to show the complexity of their respective concerns, and it requires time, courage and a lot of will."

Zamudio added that “dialogue is not about accepting the unacceptable, or justifying crimes, or forgetting, but rather understanding the other's point of view and also telling them everything you have to say. Dialogue is an epic journey, where we can build a common story and regain the trust we need ”.

The launch, which was carried out by the UAH TV Digital platform, also featured the participation of Jostein Leiro, Norwegian ambassador to Chile; Nicole Romo, social director of the Community of Solidarity Organizations; and Rosa María Olave, academic at the Alberto Hurtado University.
