Delaware Humanities Council Incorporated strengthens our communities by inspiring all Delawareans to be informed and engaged through exploring the diversity of human experience. We have begun to implement a three-year strategic plan that calls for leading with programming made more accessible to diverse audiences and with the support of grantmaking. Our programs and grant strategies will be aligned to four key focus areas: Culture & Diversity, Media & Democracy, Climate & Environment, and Stories & Histories. Through these focus areas, we will relate larger questions posed by the humanities about democracy, who we are, how we characterize ourselves, and the world around us in terms that are relatable and relevant to Delawareans from a variety of backgrounds. |
