More in Common’s mission is to understand the forces driving us apart, to find common ground and help to bring people together to tackle our shared challenges. Drawing from groundbreaking research to test and find solutions, they work with partners that have the capacity to make a real difference at scale. And they help build the larger field of efforts to strengthen democratic societies against the threats of polarization and division.

Director of Researcher, Stephen Hawkins, joined us to talk about their most recent 7 country study, their election study results and touched on the American Fabric project they have launched.
