2021 Community Partnership Forum Kick-Off

Please join nonprofit, business, government, and university leaders from the Washington, DC metro area for a webinar on March 22, 12:30 – 1:30 pm, that will explore how we can build a DMV region which is more equitable and ecologically sustainable and meets the essential needs of all residents.  The March 22 event will feature authors Marjorie Kelly and Ted Howard from the Democracy Collaborative discussing their new book, The Making of a Democratic Economy, which offers a compelling vision for a just and sustainable future.  Isaiah Poole from the Democracy Collaborative will moderate the discussion. 

This is the kickoff event for the online, 2021 Community Partnership Forum speaker series that is being organized by a regional planning committee (see below).  The annual forum, which is now in its 13th year, brings together diverse stakeholders from across the Washington metro area to explore issues of mutual interest.
