Scholars Retreat

The Scholars Retreat took place in Santa Fe, New Mexico on October 1-4, 2015, and consisted of two elements. First, it provided a valuable opportunity for extensive exchange of ideas across arenas of scholarship to strengthen the substantive design of the Forum plan. Second, it provided scholars with communications training to hone their presentation skills, including developing a TED-like talk.
