Redesigning Democracy Action Forum  

Date: Monday, November 17th

Time: 6:00 - 7:30 pm 

Location: Allison Hall

Democracy changes from generation to generation, and it is time to discuss what this generation wants out of democracy. If you attended one of the earlier Redesigning Democracy dialogues, please join us for this discussion forum focused on taking action! The goal of this dialogue is to provide space for people to discuss and develop agency to be able to do something as individuals or as a group. All are welcome!

Are you interested in hosting a facilitated dialogue? In a facilitated dialogue, people will have the opportunity to actively listen, engage in conversation, and practice setting aside judgment, which can provide a safe space to explore diverse perspectives. Dialogue is different then debate. A community comes together to engage in meaningful dialogue rather than simply advocating for their own viewpoint or attempting to convince others to adopt their perspective. If you have any questions, contact Ming Robinson, the Dialogist in Residence, at robinsmi@dickinson.edu. 

Use the Dialogue Request Form to start the process to bringing a dialogue to your community.
