DEF

A conversation in which people learn from each other by sharing their perspectives on challenging or controversial topics.

OBS

Courageous conversations can help people gain a better understanding of the discrimination and barriers faced by certain people and develop more positive relationships. They can therefore lead to meaningful change in terms of inclusion.

OBS

In order for courageous conversations to work, participants need to be honest, open, respectful and authentic. They must be prepared to experience discomfort, assume responsibility for the impact of their words on others and accept that their perspectives may be challenged.

DEF

Conversation au cours de laquelle des personnes apprennent les unes des autres en échangeant leurs points de vue sur des sujets difficiles ou controversés.

OBS

Les conversations courageuses peuvent aider les personnes à mieux comprendre la discrimination et les obstacles auxquels certaines personnes sont confrontées et à développer des relations plus positives. Elles peuvent donc mener à de véritables changements en matière d'inclusion.

OBS

Les personnes qui participent à une conversation courageuse doivent être honnêtes, ouvertes, respectueuses et authentiques pour que celle-ci soit réussie. Elles doivent s'attendre à ressentir de l'inconfort, à assumer l'impact que leurs mots peuvent avoir sur les autres et à remettre en question leurs points de vue.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Psychology (General)
  • Sociology of Communication
  • Sociology of Human Relations
OBS

Any setting where a conversation on challenging or controversial topics occurs is considered a courageous conversation space.

OBS

brave space: This concept is commonly designated by the term "brave space"; however, this term is problematic since the adjective "brave" qualifies people or human activity. As such, a space cannot be qualified as "brave."

French

Domaine(s)
  • Psychologie (Généralités)
  • Sociologie de la communication
  • Sociologie des relations humaines
OBS

L'environnement dans lequel se déroule une conversation sur un sujet difficile ou controversé est considéré comme un espace de conversation courageuse.

OBS

espace courageux : Bien que le terme «espace courageux» soit employé par certaines personnes, il est à éviter puisque l'adjectif «courageux» qualifie les personnes ou les activités humaines. Un espace ne peut donc pas être qualifié de «courageux».
