Topical Guides for Group Discussion and Deliberation, National Partners

At the heart of a strong democracy is an active citizenship. To be an informed and engaged citizen invites the opportunity to participate in civil deliberation with others. To make this possible, ICDD shares resources from partner organizations that have developed discussion materials. This includes the National Issues Forums Institute and the Interactivity Foundation. There are topical discussion guides as well as process guides.
