The Conversation - Support us this summer

Dear Engaged Reader,

These are tumultuous days. From Gaza to Ukraine to vitriolic politics to rising global temperatures, I can get stuck in the morning news cycle of one bad news headline after another.

But then I turn to The Conversation and read articles penned by the amazing experts we work with every day. And they help me − just as they help you − make sense of our complex world and put things in perspective. I see why things are happening and where there is hope for solutions. I’m grateful for the hard work of the experts who share their research and of our editors who bring these articles to you.

There is an urgent and deep need for our evidence-based journalism to counter all the misinformation, half-truths and lies that abound on seemingly every topic in this election year: immigration, health, AI, education, climate and more.

We are particularly grateful, as a nonprofit, for the generosity of our readers who carry us forward and allow us to keep our content available for free and accessible for all. While all our readers get our appeals, we assume the ones who can donate will step up to do so.

Thank you for reading this email, and thank you for any support that you can show us.

I support The Conversation.

Every gift counts. We’re giving away a magazine-style e-book to every donor, no matter how large or small the gift. It brings together seven fascinating articles on the future of work.

And every major gift of $1,000 or more will be thanked with a hard copy of The Conversation’s upcoming book on that topic. Published by Johns Hopkins University Press, it is a must-read compilation of dozens of illuminating articles on how and why working in the 21st century is rapidly changing. 

Thank you for making our work possible.
