DESCRIPTION:This powerful summit will revolve around discussions on how to address the 
 current political and social climate in the United States, using 
 Iceland’s constitutional reform process as an example. Our goal is to 
 create a non-partisan environment that will foster new approaches to 
 democracy and a shared vocabulary. Many prominent political figures from 
 Iceland will be in attendance as well as many of the authors of the new 
 constitution. Furthermore, academics, activists, startups, and journalists 
 from all over the United States and Europe are also coming to participate 
 in this “Icelandic National Assembly” style event. \n\nThis gathering 
 of citizens has piqued the interest of people from all around the globe - a 
 mass exodus of Icelanders and Europeans are flying in just to sit at these 
 tables because they know real change is possible through dialogic 
 methodologies. This historic gathering will shape the way Americans think 
 about democracy and human rights with a focus on the impact that dialogues 
 can have on the democratic process. Iceland’s new constitution was 
 written on a strong foundation in human rights and this conference aims to 
 highlight this truly amazing story of how ordinary citizens enacted social 
 change in their country.\n\nPlease register here:
