The dialogues began as a platform for scientists to meet and discuss Scientific and Technological issues that were relevant all over the world. In present times, the dialogues have earned the right to be referred to as a vehicle for change.
They provide a useful framework that is all inclusive transcending the limitations of borders, rank or file through which topical socio economic and political issues can be discussed, freely.
Seeking to place people and their concerns first, the dialogues offer opportunity and access to equitable space for discourse between peoples at different stages of development and with differing access to knowledge and capital.

In attaining such partnerships, the Movement aspires to nurture and develop comprehensive, meaningful links and networks that cut across all aspects of society and human existence.
Ethics of transparency, integrity, trust and reliability between perceived partners are promoted in the interest of further building up nascent partnerships. Intrinsically, the dialogues aspire to provide a basis for equity and fair play. Tearing down the distinction that rank imposes.
