Deliberative Dialogue – Safety & Justice: How Should Communities Reduce Violence?

Deliberative Dialogues are guided conversations on a political or controversial topic. This model of conversation removes polarizing positions and one-sided lectures by simply asking participants to investigate specific solutions to an issue through the help of an issue guide and facilitator.

Utilizing the National Issues Forum Institute (NIFI) model of deliberation on wicked problems, members of the campus and community are invited to take part in this Deliberative Dialogue on February 23 from 7 to 9 p.m. To participate, register online. This is a free event and it will take place virtually. The topic is “Safety & Justice: How Should Communities Reduce Violence?”

This event is part of the Exploring Wicked Problems: Community Safety and Justice series from the Center for Civic Engagement.
