Societal Dialogue Groups (SoDiGs)

The Societal Dialogue Group (SoDiG) is the advisory body of the EUPeace Living Peace Lab. Its role is to provide strategic direction, connect the Lab with the social fabric of local, regional, and national communities, and evaluate project proposals developed within the LivingLab ecosystem.

Local SoDiGs are currently being established at each EUPeace partner university, ensuring that activities respond to the specific needs and contexts of their communities. In the next phase, these local groups will come together to form a pan-alliance SoDiG, creating a shared platform for dialogue and coordination across Europe.

Through this structure, the SoDiG helps the Living Peace Lab remain inclusive, participatory, and grounded in real-world perspectives—turning dialogue into action and collaboration into lasting impact.
