A Unique Gathering for Higher Ed ChangemakersScheduled for Friday, September 5th, this three-hour summit offers a rich opportunity for educators, administrators, students, and community partners to connect, share, and learn practical tools for cultivating civil discourse on campus. Participants will engage in dynamic breakout sessions and facilitated conversations that address real-world challenges, such as navigating identity and power dynamics, bridging divides across differences, and implementing equitable dialogue practices that elevate all voices. This summit is more than just an event — it’s a collaborative space where participants can co-create solutions, build leadership capacity, and reinforce a campus culture grounded in equity, inclusion, and mutual respect. Whether you are leading a campus initiative, integrating deliberative methods into your teaching, or fostering student civic engagement, the summit will provide valuable strategies and connections to enhance your impact. Advancing NCDD’s Vision for Inclusive Dialogue and Democratic Engagement The Higher Education Dialogue Summit aligns deeply with NCDD’s mission to strengthen democracy by promoting dialogue and deliberation that are accessible, inclusive, and community-centered.
