Respectful Conversation

The respectful conversation project has two components: To model respectful conversations regarding controversial contemporary issues; and to encourage others to initiate their own forums for respectful conversation about important contemporary issues and to assist in facilitating such additional forums. Henry Institute Director Kevin R. den Dulk, and Calvin College Political Science professor Doug Koopman have contributed to the project.
