GivingTuesday is a global day of generosity. A day you can give some of your time, a donation, or support to communities you care about. Every donation goes directly to supporting our projects and the people we work with at Georgetown, in DC, and in the world.
From its inception, The Lab has been a place where arts, policy, shared human experience, and care come together, and in this difficult moment, that mission has never felt more urgent.
Support The Lab’s ongoing mission to nurture connection, build trust, and foster a culture of care.
No need to wait until December 2! Make your impact today by contributing to The Lab and helping to sustain our work.
The Art of Care Initiative advances the idea that art and care are profoundly linked, and that this linkage can lead to more caring systems, better health outcomes, and a more just world.
In Your Shoes™ (IYS) is a signature program of Georgetown University’s Laboratory for Global Performance & Politics that combines techniques rooted in theatrical performance with the art of deep listening to foster empathy, curiosity, and connection — even across deep divides.
