The Grown-Ups Guide to Girls: Learning to disagree without disconnecting

👂🤝 In a healthy democracy, it’s inevitable that we will disagree with others. In fact, it’s necessary! What would it look like if we spent more time engaging in debate without tearing each other down? How can we teach respectful disagreement in classrooms and beyond? In this episode, we hear from Sante Mastriana, Director of Professional Development at the Close Up Foundation, an organisation that encourages young people to exercise their rights as citizens. In this short, accessible episode, Sante shares how adults can help the girls in their lives to listen with curiosity and speak with civility. Our future depends on it.
