The Jewish Summit on Civics, held March 11-13, 2024 in Washington, DC and online, was a first-of-its-kind effort to advance the role of civic learning in Jewish contexts.

Civic learning matters because as a society, we want the people who make choices about our future to have the information they need to make well-informed, well-reasoned judgments (voting and otherwise). We want people who run for office to be qualified and serious. We want people who serve on juries to be diligent and conscientious. We want people who consume news to confidently assess what is true and what is sensationalism, bias, or conspiracy.
