The influence of facilitation on the conduct and outcome of public forums is so significant that training, practice and assessment for facilitators is becoming a priority of ICDD. We seek to increase the quality and quantity of public deliberations. To do this, our faculty and trained facilitation team provide neutral
facilitation services to campus, community and government groups. Additionally, we offer an annual facilitation training workshop that teaches facilitation skills to interested government officials, educators, community activists, and students.
For more information about our facilitation services contact ICDD via email, or visit the "Contact Us" page of this site.

The Journal of Public Deliberation was created as a scholarly forum for deliberative democracy. The journal publishes information on research, opinions, projects, experiments, and experience of practitioners and academics.
