The Research & Design Studio is structured to integrate collaboratively with others involved in civil discourse or synonymous and adjacent work across the broader Harvard community.

Our Community of Practice is designed to facilitate action-oriented coordination around implementation of university initiatives.



 

##  Our Goals 

 



 ### Create a Convening Space

Coordinate those advancing the work of civil discourse across the Harvard community. Connect and convene administrators, professors, fellows, and other Harvard affiliates who are leading initiatives to advance civil discourse across all Harvard schools, in order to share expertise, resources, and feedback.



 

 ### Bring Harvard to a Broader Audience

Create media that bridges divides between our civil discourse work at Harvard and the larger community. The *In Good Faith* podcast is designed to highlight real people engaged in authentic, difficult conversations.



 

  

 

 

 

##  What We're Working On 

 



 ### Workshop Series

We host Community of Practice member expos, workshops, and happy hours to share what they are working on and ask questions of each other.



 

 ### In Good Faith Podcast

A podcast that invites pairs who disagree along unusual fault lines to have a conversation in the spirit of good faith. It is expected to launch in late 2026.
