Section 1 is a democracy and civics education think tank dedicated to understanding and combating democratic backsliding and to advancing the cause of liberal democracy in Canada and around the world. Our mission is to instill in every citizen a sense of civic duty to come to the rescue of their democracy when it is threatened from within by departures from the norms of liberal constitutionalism, and from without by efforts to destabilize democratic institutions and to corrupt democratic practices. The focus of our work is the development and promotion of a curriculum for liberal democratic citizenship, to be adopted in the public schools and in institutions of higher learning. We undertake our work both through research, scholarship and public interest advocacy, and through direct engagement with educators, particularly in the field of civics education. Our motto is: "Education for Heroic Citizenship".
