To enable dialogue with all relevant stakeholders in a comfortable setting. 

The Kitchen Table Talk method is an informal, relaxed gathering where stakeholders—often from diverse backgrounds and with varying agendas—come together in a casual setting to engage in open dialogue. The primary goal is to create a space where participants feel comfortable expressing their views and ideas, without the pressure of formal meetings or hierarchical structures. This approach encourages collaboration, active listening, and shared decision-making, allowing the group to develop a collective vision or plan. By focusing on building trust and mutual understanding, the Kitchen Table Talk method fosters meaningful conversations that lead to solutions that all participants can support, despite their differing priorities.
