This syllabus provides philanthropic leaders with a comprehensive understanding of political violence, polarization, and evidence-based strategies for building social cohesion and strengthening democracy. The readings span research, policy analysis, and practical guidance for foundation work.
We help organizations push back when leaders abuse their power. Our support network brings people together across differences, lifts up local voices, and builds the strength communities need to protect each other and overcome crisis.
We increase the capacity of individuals and organizations to ensure that government works for the people. We make it possible to advocate for policies that promote government accountability and uphold the values that unite us.
We help philanthropy mobilize the middle to push back against political violence and intimidation. We support cross-partisan campaigns that elevate voices of reason and resilience to support servants under fire.
