		<description><![CDATA[The nine-page article, &#8220;A Comparative Study of Coastal Communities in Cuba and the United States&#8221; by&#160;Paloma Dallas, Penny Dendy, Terry Jack, Esther Velis, Virginia York, was&#160;published in&#160;Kettering Foundation&#8216;s 2016 edition of their annual newsletter,&#160;Connections&#160;&#8211; Kettering&#8217;s Multinational Research. In the seventh article of the newsletter, the authors talk about the collaboration between Kettering and the&#160;Antonio N&#250;&#241;ez Jim&#233;nez Foundation, on&#160;how each organization worked with communities in the US and Cuba, respectively, on addressing important issues that impact both areas.

It is important to engage young people in meaningful ways and for them to be a part of the key decision-making processes. Use this article as a way to gauge if your processes are inclusive of young people [&#8230;] <a href="http://ncdd.org/rc/item/11742">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The 14-page article, When is Deliberation Democratic?, was written by David Moscrop and Mark Warren, and&#160;published in the&#160;Journal of Public Deliberation: Vol. 12: Iss. 2. In the article, the authors theorize on how deliberative democracy operates in relation to equality and equity. They lift up two features that are of particular importance to pre-deliberative democracy: popular participation and agenda-setting, that must be paid attention to by theorist and practitioners. Deliberative democratic processes shape and are shaped by these two features, popular participation- how people show [&#8230;] <a href="http://ncdd.org/rc/item/11549">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The 21-page report, Leaders or Leaderfulness? Lessons from High-Achieving Communities (2016), was written by David Mathews and supported by the Cousins Research Group of the Kettering Foundation. The report discusses how communities become stronger and more resilient through more &#8220;leaderfulness&#8221; of its community members, as opposed to having just a few of active leaders. What Mathews means by &#8220;leaderfulness&#8221;, is that people are engaged within a community and show leaderfulness by taking initiative to participate. Through years of research, Kettering has found that the serious [&#8230;] <a href="http://ncdd.org/rc/item/11248">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

In the talk, Adichie shares what she calls, &#8220;the danger of a single story&#8221; and the false understandings that can arise when only the single side of a story is heard. Adichie shows the powerful opportunity of storytelling- to hear the many different sides of a story and have a more complete understanding of a person, a situation, a reality.

In the report, Mathews shares some core realizations Kettering has come to learn over the last 30 years of research&#160;about how people make decisions and take action. Kettering has found that there are two moments in the decision-making process that are especially important: naming and framing.

		<description><![CDATA[The 36-page guide,&#160;Developing Materials for Deliberative Forums, was written by Brad Rourke and published 2014 on the Kettering Foundation site. In the guide, Rourke shares all the elements needed to design an issue guide to better inform participants during deliberation. An issue guide lays out multiple sides of a subject/issue to give participants tools to engage in more informed deliberation, the guide then offers examples of the options, as well as, drawbacks to each one. There is no one perfect way to develop an issue [&#8230;] <a href="http://ncdd.org/rc/item/11342">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

In the article, Parsa discusses the need to not be a neutral party within this society because it furthers the injustices of this world. Instead she offers the alternative of multi-partiality, to not remain neutral and both hold one&#8217;s own opinion while also being able to hold alternatives perspectives, even if they differ dramatically. The dialogue and deliberation field very often is a vehicle through which [&#8230;] <a href="http://ncdd.org/rc/item/11170">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>
