A public forum entitled "We the People: Founders and Founding Ideals of Indiana and the Northwest Territories" and an educational workshop for teachers and scholars to develop a "We the People" electronic historical resources toolkit.

The Indiana Humanities Council proposes two "We the People" projects. The first is a public forum in the 2004 Indiana Leadership Summit, entitled “We the People: Founders and Founding Ideals of Indiana and the Northwest Territories.” Through this presentation, the Council will inform a group of leaders from across Indiana about founding leaders and their ideals. Second, the Council will sponsor an educational workshop for K-12 teachers and university scholars to develop "We the People" historical resources and electronic toolkits for the IHC Smart Desktop.
