About this event

This session examines the pressures, vulnerabilities, and shifting conditions that put democratic systems at risk. Join us for a timely conversation on political violence, public trust, governance challenges, and the institutional safeguards that help uphold a functioning democracy.

• Shannon Hiller, Executive Director, Bridging Divides Initiative at Princeton University
Hiller brings deep expertise on political violence trends, democratic stress indicators, and community-level strategies to mitigate conflict and polarization.

• Bonnie Stabile, Ph.D., Associate Professor & Associate Dean, Schar School of Policy and Government, George Mason University
A respected scholar of public policy, governance, and gender equity, Stabile offers insight into how institutional pressures, weakened guardrails, and declining trust strain democratic norms.
