Our Team

 

At the Forum on Democracy and Education, we believe that strengthening the teaching of civics and the development of civic dispositions requires a collaborative, multidisciplinary effort. Our team brings together faculty and researchers at the forefront of their fields, dedicated professional staff, and George Washington University students who are the next generation of civic leaders. Together, we aspire to translate complex research into practical strategies for educators and communities nationwide.
