Do you think the things that divide us are insurmountable? We don’t.
Some conversations are too important to leave to shouting matches and comment sections. Common Ground Debates puts them in a room instead.
We design and chair public debates on the questions that divide and define our communities — the ones people usually talk around. Voices, not sides: varying views, same table, held with structure and a respect. We bring the format, the neutrality and the room; the community brings the questions.
Honest, civil, solutions-focused and unafraid of the hard part. The point isn’t to win — it’s to understand each other a little better, and find a way forward.
Panel debates, community forums, post-screening discussions, universities, schools and youth sessions — in person or sometimes recorded for our wider media work.
