NCME / Harwood Institute Partnership

The National Center for Media Engagement (NCME) and the Harwood Institute for Public Innovation are working together with stations on how to be more intentional about their role in the community and how to start forging new networks. To do that, we're helping public media to:

  • Cultivate an engagement ethos - the mindset and culture for engaging communities
  • Shift their thinking and turn outward to their communities
  • Listen and communicate authentically
  • Take concrete steps to discover, understand and address community concerns

Using a variety of media and communications, NCME and Harwood are reinforcing the ability for those in public media to take a step, to ask "What is one thing I can do today?" to make a difference, to change.
