Students learn dialogue skills, study challenging topics like the Israel-Palestine conflict, meet guest speakers, and may take trips to learn firsthand. The program helps students talk respectfully about hard topics and builds skills they can use in school, work, and life. Currently at UNC-Chapel Hill with plans to expand to more colleges.
