</figure> <p>The University of Notre Dame’s <a href="https://strategicframework.nd.edu/initiatives/democracy-initiative/">Democracy Initiative</a> has announced a new round of multi-year investments that will support research and education projects led by Notre Dame faculty and students and convenings that will bring together prominent democracy scholars from around the world.</p> <p>These investments were made through the Initiative’s inaugural <a href="https://strategicframework.nd.edu/initiatives/democracy-initiative/democracy-initiative-funding-opportunity/">Democracy Catalyst Fund</a> and support new one-to-three-year projects that closely align with the mission of the Democracy Initiative. The initiative, <a href="https://news.nd.edu/news/notre-dame-launches-university-wide-democracy-initiative-to-advance-research-education-and-policy-efforts-to-sustain-and-enhance-democracy/">launched in April 2024</a>, aims to establish Notre Dame as a leader in the study of democracy in the U.S. and worldwide, as a convenor for conversations about and actions to preserve democracy, and as a model for the formation of civically engaged citizens and public servants.</p> <p>“I am impressed by the vibrant community of democracy scholars at Notre Dame,” said <a href="https://politicalscience.nd.edu/people/david-campbell/">David Campbell</a>, Democracy Initiative director and Packey J. Dee Professor of American Democracy. “These 40 Democracy Catalyst projects range across the University and include faculty and students at every level who are conducting cutting-edge research, creating new opportunities for students, and convening thought leaders across the disciplines to tackle the biggest issues facing democracy around the world.”</p> <p>The 40 funded projects center around the initiative's thematic areas of Democracy and Culture, Democratic Institutions, and Democracy and Religion. Twenty-nine of the projects are led by Arts &amp; Letters scholars, including historians, philosophers, theologians, economists, designers, education researchers, and more. </p> <p>More details on each project can be found on the <a href="https://strategicframework.nd.edu/initiatives/democracy-initiative/democracy-initiative-funding-opportunity/democracy-catalyst-grant-recipients/">Democracy Catalyst Grant Awards page</a>.</p> <p>The 29 Arts &amp; Letters-led awarded projects include:</p> <h2>Convenings</h2> <ul> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p><a href="https://politicalscience.nd.edu/people/jaimie-bleck/">Jaimie Bleck</a>, an associate professor in the Department of Political Science, will <a href="https://strategicframework.nd.edu/initiatives/democracy-initiative/democracy-initiative-funding-opportunity/democracy-catalyst-grant-recipients/#African-Governance">organize an edited book conference in London</a> in support of the <a href="https://isla.nd.edu/about/research-labs/african-governance-research-innovation-collaborative/">African Governance Innovations Lab</a>.
