The President established the Eminent Persons Group (EPG) to guide and champion the National Dialogue.

The EPG consists of prominent individuals in society with a proven commitment to the advancement of social cohesion and nation-building. The Eminent Persons are drawn from across the country and from many fields of endeavour in our public life.

The EPG is supported by the National Dialogue Preparatory Task, which is made up of representatives of a number of Foundations, civil society organisations and the Presidency. 

The Preparatory Task Team is responsible for the practical arrangements of the National Dialogue until a representative Steering Committee has been established.
