Last year, CIVICUS' global SPEAK! campaign connected over 200 organizations from nearly 50 countries, allowing them to ?speak? to one another across lines of division, reversing the trend of increasing social and political polarization. Some of the results were truly amazing. Urgent peace agreements were signed, old prejudices were confronted and new relationships established. This year promises to be even more impactful. Join us as Nic MacKay, SPEAK! Campaign Consultant at CIVICUS: World Alliance for Civic Participation, talks about SPEAK! 2019 and shares lessons learned from previous campaigns and ways we can get involved with CIVICUS's work beyond the SPEAK! Campaign 2019. Call in live at (347) 884-8121 to join the conversation. You don't need an account to listen. You can also participate in the live chat. Archived episodes may be found at iTunes, Podcast Chart, Blubrry and Stitcher.
