🗳️ Help Shape the 2025 Democracy Summit: Your Voice Matters
As threats to democracy, education, and civil society grow bolder across the globe, it’s clear: we need to meet this moment with courage, collaboration, and community. That’s why we’re launching a new virtual event — the 2025 Democracy Summit — and we’re inviting you to help shape it from the very beginning. Read more about our vision.
This will be more than just another conference. It’s part of a yearlong movement to resist authoritarianism, defend the right to learn and teach freely, and build practical strategies for collective resilience. Educators, activists, technologists, students, artists, families, and everyday citizens — we want everyone at the table.
