The role played by the CDCC is to facilitate a free and independent public space for citizens with different religious or cultural backgrounds to speak, discuss and dialogue to discuss religious issues and even state issues in order to criticize and control the government in order to form good governance.

The CDCC is also concerned with dialogues related to religion and belief by always holding meetings between followers of different religions in order to create a pluralist and tolerant society. As a form of implementing the role of the CDCC in an effort to establish a free public space in the life of society and the state, the CDCC conducts a dialogue or discussion. The forms of dialogue or discussion conducted by the CDCC are inter-religious dialogue, dialogue about politics, cultural dialogue and dialogue related to the economy.
