Get started here on your Advanced Deliberative Dialogue Badge!
By participating in a NextGen Roundtable deliberation, you have built and practiced the critical skills of communication, active listening, problem-solving, and navigating differing viewpoints, and you have earned the Deliberative Dialogue Badge in the process. Now, you have the opportunity to continue on to the Advanced Deliberative Dialogue Badge by becoming an ambassador for deliberation in your home community.
All you need to do is:
- Submit a plan for leading a deliberation on an issue that matters to you. We’ll then invite you to join the Close Up Civil Discourse Platform.
- Log into the Civil Discourse Platform using the credentials we provide. This is where you will track your progress, create your Learning Record, and submit reflections.
- Conduct your community deliberation. You can use the resources provided below or choose a topic and provide materials of your own.
- Upload a photo from your deliberation and a reflection to the Civil Discourse Platform. Once reviewed, we will send you your digital badge, certificate of completion, and letter from Congress celebrating your achievement.
