Great Decisions with TADL

Feb. 8, 2025

Feeling overwhelmed by the news and struggling to make sense of it all? Especially in a global context? Head to the Traverse Area District Library for their ongoing civics discussion group, Great Decisions: Community Conversations about Current World Affairs (organized nationally by the Foreign Policy Association, hosted locally by TADL). This eight-week series will dive into topics like U.S.-China relations, international cooperation on climate change, artificial intelligence, and more as they work through the Great Decisions 2025 Briefing book. The group is two weeks in, but you can still join up! Two sessions are running for the next six weeks, with a 2-4pm meeting time weekly on Wednesdays and a 3-5pm time on Thursdays in the Thirlby Room.
