Civic Learning and Democratic Engagement Meeting
July 24, 2020 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm
CLDE 2020 Is Going Virtual!
Following increased and overwhelming concerns about the COVID-19 pandemic and its associated effects across our country, and driven by our responsibility to ensure the best interests of our CLDE, ADP & NASPA community, we are moving the 2020 Civic Learning and Democratic Engagement (CLDE) Meeting, originally scheduled for June 3-6, 2020 in Minneapolis, MN, to a Virtual Conference. The health, well-being, and safety of our members, our communities, and our staff are of utmost importance. This was not an easy decision, but we felt this was the best way to proceed during such an unprecedented global situation.
AASCU’s American Democracy Project (ADP) and NASPA are committed to advancing the civic engagement movement in higher education. Join us for our first ever virtual meeting which brings together faculty, student affairs professionals, senior campus administrators, students and community partners. Together we will ensure that students graduate from our colleges and universities–both public and private–prepared to be the informed, engaged citizens that our communities and our democracy need.
This year’s virtual event will take place over three different dates:
June 4 – 5, July 24, and September 11, 2020
Participants will have opportunities to network and develop their civic-minded thinking and practices through engaging plenary sessions, informative general interest sessions, interactive virtual workshops, and roundtable discussions.

Our Virtual #CLDE20 will include plenary speakers, concurrent sessions, and much more, and we regret that we are unable to accept all of the programs originally slotted for the in-person CLDE20. We contacted every speaker who was originally accepted, and many e-mails may have been filtered into the spam folder. If you have not been contacted by us to prepare your session for the Virtual CLDE20, we hope that you resubmit your session for our next in-person gathering, CLDE21 in Boston, and we look forward to seeing you at our Virtual #CLDE20. Thank you!
