National dialogue

Sisu – Welcome to organise a National Dialogue

What issues require sisu from us right now? What kind of sisu do we need to find in order to move toward a better tomorrow? How can we create sisu together? How can sisu also include empathy, a desire for justice, and caring for other people and nature?

Tervetuloa mukaan! Sinua tarvitaan!

Kansallisia dialogeja koordinoivat DialogiAkatemia, Sivis opintokeskus, Sitra, Forssan kunta, valtiovarainministeriö sekä valtioneuvoston kanslia.

Sisu

1. How can individuals identify the tipping point where beneficial sisu morphs into harmful sisu, particularly in prolonged crises or uncertain environments?

2. When does determination (sisu) become detrimental to democracy? How can we collectively distinguish between the principled defense of a position (Beneficial Sisu) and the stubborn, unyielding refusal to listen and compromise (Harmful Sisu) that actively fuels political and social polarisation?

3. The Sisu of the Citizen: What are the most crucial, yet often unacknowledged, acts of beneficial sisu that citizens perform daily to maintain local cohesion?

Organizer: Kare Ry
