Communities

Social change is collectively imagined, negotiated, and catalyzed within communities. Communities can take many different shapes, whether they are local, national, global, or even digital. Strengthening democracy and upholding equitable access to accurate information are vital to ensuring effective responses to crises such as pandemics and natural disasters. By understanding how community forms the backbone of democracy, you are empowered to choose where and how to give, volunteer, or advocate for civil society.
