On Election Day (in Virginia), the Carter School for Peace and Conflict Resolution at George Mason University invites teachers and students across the DMV to Dialogue for Democracy, a hands-on summit exploring the complexity of current issues facing our democracy. Students and teachers follow separate tracks and register separately. Teachers will engage with Carter School faculty (through presentations, dialogue circles, and workshop activities) to address conflict analysis and resolution topics in the classroom. Sessions include The Role of History and Memory in Classroom Instruction, Integrating Conflict Resolution into the Curriculum, and Fostering Curiosity: Removing the Echo Chamber. Registration is free for teachers.
The program offers a separate track for students, for whom there is a $50 per person fee.
