NEDStuff All Attendees Gaige Hall 200

Summit Keynote: Higher Ed, Civic Trust and the Role of the Web

Jessica Pontarelli Evans

Jessica Pontarelli Evans

Assistant Director of Communications at Brown University, Swearer Center for Public Service

University websites are more than just information hubs—they are platforms for civic identity, public trust and community connection. As Drupal developers, designers, digital strategists and more, you are shaping the narratives students and the broader public encounter first. This session explores how digital teams working in Drupal can help their institutions communicate civic purpose, reflect community values and hold the line on trust. From inclusive design to content governance, we’ll talk about how web professionals can help meet this moment.
