Abstract	Context: Sport is an increasingly diverse context. This reality has prompted clinicians and educators to emphasize cultural competence education in athletic training. However, few efforts go beyond traditional, didactic methods and teach cultural competence in practically meaningful ways. One evidence-based approach that has potential to promote cultural competence in athletic training education is intergroup dialogue. Objective: To describe intergroup dialogue in concept and research, demonstrate why this pedagogy can support cultural competence in athletic training education, and detail what such an approach looks like in practice. Background: Intergroup dialogue has origins in critical pedagogical philosophies and emerged as a part of broader social and political movements in the United States. Over the last 30 years, scholars have systematically employed and studied the approach in higher education. Description: Intergroup dialogue is an interdisciplinary approach that teaches people how to communicate across differences. Guided by trained facilitator(s), this method can help participants develop an understanding of diversity and practical skills to constructively navigate social-cultural differences in order to improve relationships and effect positive social change. Clinical Advantage(s): Intergroup dialogue can address the critical need for engaging pedagogy that helps athletic training students and practitioners develop cultural competencies. This method can equip those in athletic training with a critical awareness of social-cultural differences and practical skills to provide culturally sensitive care and promote equity. Conclusion(s): Athletic training educators can consider intergroup dialogue as a promising pedagogical approach to promote cultural competence in athletic training. (As Provided).
