Civic Life Lunch - The Democracy Dilemma: Civic Simulation

Join us for an interactive Civic Life Lunch led by Jonathan Tirrell, Director of the Vuslat Foundations Generous Listening and Dialogue Initiative (VF-GLADi). In this guided civic scenario, you’ll step into different perspectives on real-world civic challenges and practice listening as a tool for understanding stakes and acting thoughtfully within complex systems.

This lunch will sharpen your listening and dialogue skills and empower you with practical strategies to navigate spaces of discussion, debate, and decision-making.

All are welcome. Registration required. Lunch provided.
