Using both quantitative data based on pre-post test questionnaires and qualitative data based on personal interviews with program participants, the authors examine the outcomes of students' experiences in a school-based intervention for improving intergroup relations between adolescents at two high schools. Specifically, the authors investigate whether students increase their awareness of social identities and intergroup conflict, their level of competence with dialogue and intergoup understanding, and their capacity for social action around intergroup conflict. The findings demonstrate that the intervention was successful in increasing students' critical social awareness and developing skills for conflict reduction and promoting intergroup relations. The authors discuss the implications of these findings for research and practice.

Key Words: intergroup relations • dialogue • evaluation • adolescence • schools
