The Seed Field

In May, Antioch University announced a robust set of democracy-promoting initiatives called Antioch Works for Democracy. Now, the effort’s six pillars are all in motion, from the announcement of twelve awardees from the Fund for Democratic Initiatives to the first Employee Days of Action to the many events being hosted through Education for Democracy, and more. In this special episode, we tell the story of the creation and development of Antioch Works for Democracy through the voices of many of the key figures behind this effort.
