The Civil Discourse Initiative at UVA

Club Description

The Civil Discourse Initiative (CDI) is a collective of student leaders dedicated to changing our perception of political dialogue at the University and beyond. We believe in a large-scale model of change, and work to put on wide-appeal public events that demonstrate what good discourse looks like through the mouths of student leaders, the lens of student issues, and in spaces students interact with. Success to us is teaching the value of brave, sensitive, and thoughtful discussion - even, and especially, when we disagree.
