Do you mean convergent paths or activities?
Converge[v.] If lines, roads, or paths converge, they move towards the same point where they join or meet.
Example: Ambulances, police cars, and fire engines all converged on the scene.

2Welcome to ELU. It's generally best to wait for clarification so you don't have to guess. In any case, answers should be corroborated: you need to explain why convergent fits, preferably with citations from reference books.– Andrew Leach ♦Jun 13 at 13:50
