Description
We will strengthen inclusion, mutual understanding and the knowledge base in preparing of policy measures through dialogues. • We will establish and expand National dialogues together with civil society actors. The aim is to increase the number of participants and organisers in these dialogues. • We will improve the effectiveness of National dialogues by producing shorter summaries and highlighting the results of the dialogues for the use of the ministries’ leadership. We will also make the impact of information created via dialogues visible to the participants. • We will develop the utilisation of the results of national dialogues in cooperation with the organisers of dialogues. We will also strengthen the utilisation of information obtained through dialogues at other administrative levels (wellbeing services counties and municipalities). • We will utilise national dialogues and their results as part of the Government’s futures work, for example in the preparation of foresight reports. • We will strengthen dialogue competence and the use of dialogues: we will integrate dialogue work into the open democracy network (see commitment 3).
