transformative conversation and features a wide variety of events,

polarization of contemporary society and explore the impacts of
civility and outrage as alternative ways to address these problems.
Each session will allow the audience to debate present day issues,
challenges, and conflicts affecting the way people have a say in their
own future such as political representation, labor conditions,
environment, privacy and security etc. within modern democracies from
a variety of theoretical perspectives.
