Join us for an engaging session with the founders and research director of Sandbox, a conversation app built to help people talk across political differences in structured, thoughtful ways.
Guided by the belief that meaningful dialogue is essential to understanding, Sandbox pairs users weekly for one-on-one discussions where they share perspectives on timely political topics, explain their reasoning, and listen to each other with curiosity and respect.

During the event, Libby Prosch, Lee Prosch and Jared Celniker will introduce the app, share the story behind its founding and lead a discussion about how intentionally structured conversations can reduce polarization in everyday life. Attendees will learn about how Sandbox works, the research and real-world experiences that shaped it and practical insights for fostering healthier political discourse.
Whether you’re curious about digital tools for dialogue, interested in the psychology of disagreement or looking for strategies to engage across divides, this session will offer informational takeaways and space for Q & A. Come connect with fellow Buckeyes and explore how thoughtful conversation might help us better understand what we’re missing.
