Join the School of Behavioral and Social Sciences and our partners for our lecture series: Democracy in the Public Space. In this series, faculty and local community leaders will discuss various topics related to civic engagement and how we all can make our voices count.
The School of Behavioral and Social Sciences’ Democracy in the Public Space is dedicated to fostering a vibrant community dialogue on the principles of democracy, civic responsibility, and community involvement. Through an engaging series of lectures, discussions, and an educational poster campaign, we aim to inspire active participation in the political process, to address societal challenges, and to cultivate a culture of informed and engaged citizenship.
