Capitol Forum Indiana (CFI) is a civic engagement and international education program that focuses on current global issues and U.S. foreign policy. Intended for high school teachers and students across Indiana, it is part of a larger, multi-state initiative of The Choices Program at Brown University.
CFI engages social studies and English/language arts classes from various types of schools in active research, deliberation, writing, reflection, and balloting. A highlight of CFI is the statewide, one and a half-day forum at the State Capitol during which student representatives from participating schools share their class position statements, meet and speak with Secretary of State Todd Rokita, participate in small-group deliberations, voice their opinions in a large-group forum, and vote on a proposed foreign policy direction for the U.S. |
