European Dialogue works to secure the implementation of human rights and grassroots, participatory democracy in an integrated Europe and its neighbours within the region. We work to engage and support excluded communities and vulnerable minorities in their struggle to combat discrimination, racism and exclusive nationalism, in the interests of justice, social cohesion, sustainable security and global responsibility.

European Dialogue has four programme areas - Roma Rights; Russia and the Caucasus; Balkan, Peace and Integration; and the Future of Europe. Working  in partnership with NGOs from our target countries, European Dialogue organises study visits to learn from other experiences - in particular an exchange of experience of good policy and practice from the UK; training to raise awareness and capacity build; partnership building exercises to bring diverse groups together to improve communication and to build trust in order to tackle problems; and national conferences, round-tables and publications to disseminate the results of the projects to a wider audience and to make an impact upon policy.

European Dialogue was launched in 1990 as an independent, not-for-profit organisation to promote peace, democracy, social justice and environmental responsibility in a united Europe. European Dialogue is a founding member of the pan-European Helsinki Citizens Assembly (hCa) network, a rich resource in terms of like-minded NGOs and individuals; many of whom we are still working with today.
