Georgia Humanities Democracy and the Informed Citizen Initiative
“The Democracy and the Informed Citizen” initiative presented by our partners at the Georgia Humanities explores the essential role that the humanities and journalism play in creating an informed citizenry, and in turn, a healthy democracy. This program was funded by the “Why It Matters: Civic and Electoral Participation” initiative, administered by the Federation of State Humanities Councils and funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.
