Welcome!
The Interactivity Foundation (or IF) works to engage citizens in the exploration and development of possibilities for public policy through small group discussions. We group these discussions and our work generally into 3 main focal areas:
Project Discussions
Longer-term projects with selected panelists that develop our Discussion Reports with different possibilities for future public policy.
Public Discussions
Shorter-term discussion series that use our Discussion Reports as a starting point for further discussion and exploration.
Classroom Discussions
We also work with educators to support student-centered discussions in a variety of educational settings.
