In partnership with the Kettering Foundation (https://kettering.org) and the National Issues Forums Institute (https://nifi.org), NAAEE has been developing the Environmental Issues Forums program (https://naaee.org/eif).

To support the process of facilitating deliberative forums, NIFI recently published a Moderator TOOLKIT. We invite you to use EIF as a way of engaging community members in deep discussions around wicked issues by holding a forum on climate, water, energy, or food issues.

How to Get Started:
Visit https://naaee.org/eif to download issue guides and the Toolkit for conveners and moderators, https://naaee.org/eepro/resources/deliberative-forums-moderator-toolkit

You can also convene an Online Forum Using the Common Ground for Action Platform or Join a Scheduled Online Forum. Please visit https://www.nifi.org/en/common-ground-action for more information about how to host, and view the schedule of online forums.
