Forum Feedback

The Forum for Education and Democracy is a DC-based action tank committed to three central goals: Advising thought leaders and policy makers about what characterizes engaging, equitable, and high-functioning schools; Advocating for policies that help schools prepare young people for democratic citizenship; and Amplifying the voices of educators and young people so their stories can shape how policies are made -- and clarify what purpose they should serve. To help us do this, we need to hear from you. Take a look at our core questions, and tell us what policymakers needs to know!
