Draft script for the Nature Dialogue Use this as a basis for your discussion and the wordings you will use in its facilitation Duration 120 or 180 minutes & Guidelines for altering the script Plan your discussion in advance on the basis of the script. The script is aimed at supporting the facilitation of the dialogue and we are not suggesting that you share it with the participants. It’s good to print it for yourself after you have modified it. The wordings in the script are examples and we hope that you will adapt them to your discussion topic and to better suit your way of speaking. All times are approximate and are just to give you an idea of how much time you should use for each step. They are not intended to be followed exactly, except for the start and close. The facilitation techniques in the script are partly for remote discussion. If you organize the discussion face-to-face, change them to suit the situation. Start (1/2) Welcome to the Nature Dialogue on “What does nature mean to you / to our class / work community / hobby group / organization and how does that contribute to biodiversity conservation?” The aim of this discussion is to better understand the diverse relationships people have with nature. Why do they matter to each of us and what prevents us from stopping the loss of biodiversity? What would get you or your organization inspired by a nature-wise Finland and to contribute to stopping the loss of biodiversity? My name is XX and I will be facilitating this discussion. I will make sure that we have as equal a discussion as possible so that everyone has a chance to take part. In practice, this means that if you talk over each other or do monologues, I will interrupt you. Is that OK with everyone?
