In a dialogue, there is a sender, a receiver and often there is turn taking. A multilogue might consist of many senders and receivers, no turn taking, with any interested party contributing, without regard to rank or stature. The purpose is to foster shared understanding. There is no teacher or discussant to lead or orchestrate. Everyone has equal access to being heard. A multilogue pools knowledge across disciplines and boundaries. In this way, not only facts are shared but also ways of looking at the world.
