"dialogue" with three groups

dialogue involving three groups/patrties individuals - a neologism.

This has been used as the name of organizations such as:

http://www.trialog.or.at/
http://www.trialog.com/home/
http://3alog.net/

Some of these organizations are dedicated to interreligious dialogue, esp. between the three monotheistic religions.

"A coalition of the three most important religions, Islam, Christianity and Judaism" seems to me to be what would be most effective - dialogue alone usually gets you nowhere
