The development of the regional forum, "Dynamic Indiana," an online marketplace of ideas on the humanities in Indiana; and programs developed as part of the new statewide initiative, "Food for Thought."

The Indiana Humanities Council will sponsor We the People programs in 2009-2010 that engage Hoosiers in serious thought and conversation about the state of America and our communities today, as illuminated by regional and national history. The project will have three components: a theme program on "Food for Thought," civic discussions organized as regional forums, and a digital platform to showcase American history and cultural programs in colleges, universities, and public humanities institutions.
