Inspiration 

Hearing about things that have happened elsewhere can spark ideas about what you can implement locally. The Mill Institute at [UATX](https://www.uaustin.org/) is an important part in bringing people together, even when they disagree, in the "pursuit of truth".

"By convening and training educators, creating learning resources, and conducting research, the [Mill Institute](https://www.uaustin.org/mill) helps students become less certain and more curious when it comes to the way they understand the world and one another."

 Just a little over a year ago, The Mill Institute was created with Faculty Director Ilana Redstone who [said](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1h32x8ebQQy5rOduXZZMjc-gNGA30u_ta/view), “With a willingness to question what we know about the world and each other, the Mill Institute will model civil [disagreement](https://thehill.com/opinion/campaign/3662859-the-problem-of-political-polarization-lies-largely-in-how-we-think/), train instructors, and offer engaging programming to students and the public. We’ll equip the next generation to confront complex issues together.”

 

They're hosting their second annual [Teacher Fellowship](https://www.uaustin.org/mill) this October where the Mill Institute helps educators model and welcome respectful dialog around complex topics. 

 

We are a community even when we disagree. It is essential to [communicate](https://www.gsb.stanford.edu/insights/we-belong-together-how-communication-fuels-connection-community)!
