Discussing dialogue: perspectives on the value of science dialogue events that do not inform policy:
TL;DR: The authors argue that non-policy dialogue on science as sites of symmetrical individual or small-scale learning through social processes can be justified without returning to the deficit model and argue that there are in fact further ways to understand and frame them.
