As public conversations about diversity and inclusion grow more polarized, many practitioners ask how we can expand participation without compromising our values.

Join NCDD for Rethinking Inclusivity: Expanding the Invitation in Public Engagement, on Thursday, May 22, from 1–2:30 pm Eastern / 10–11:30 am Pacific.

This timely session will explore how we can build public engagement efforts that welcome those unfamiliar with or even skeptical of dialogue and deliberation, especially across political, rural/urban, and generational divides.

  • Siri Erickson – PACE (Philanthropy for Active Civic Engagement)
  • Tahnee Robertson – Southwest Decision Resources
