The Dialogue Institute engages religious, civic and academic leaders in practicing the skills of respectful dialogue and critical thinking, forming and sustaining transformative relationships across lines of religion and culture. It provides resources and creates networks for intra- and interreligious scholarship and action that value difference and foster human dignity. The related Journal of Ecumenical Studies (JES) advances critical awareness of the latest directions in ecumenical and interreligious research. Established in 1964 initially with an intra-Christian focus, JES soon evolved into an organ of Christian-Jewish dialogue and then further expanded to include all of the world's major religions and ideologoes, including atheism. It continues as the premier peer-reviewed journal in intrareligious, interreligious and interideological dialogue around the world.
