EVENT DETAILS |
<P><SPAN STYLE="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">We live in an age of broken politics, overwhelming civic cynicism, and vast disparities in wealth and justice. At the same time, grassroots interest in rebuilding democracy abounds, from the maturing open government movement, to a proliferation of new civic engagement and empowerment platforms.</SPAN><BR><BR><SPAN STYLE="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Now is the time for a new conversation about what kind of society we wish to live in, and what solutions will move us most quickly in that direction. Join New York's civic tech luminaries for a night of thought-provoking ideas and deep discussion more salon than meetup, more world-changing than networking.</SPAN></P>
