Responding to President Joe Biden’s inaugural request to end the “uncivil war” in America, the University of Virginia Center for Politics is launching a yearlong national Civility Project in an effort to help lower the temperature of public discourse in the United States, raise the standards of civic engagement, teach and protect undergirding democratic principles that define American life, and safeguard against forces aimed at provoking and dividing the American people.
Beyond programming that merely showcases different opinions, the UVA Center for Politics’ Civility Project will focus on the key goal of promoting civility in politics through conversation, cooperation, consultation and compromise.
