From local meetings to major public events, smartphones and social media have turned everyday people into real-time witnesses to history. That shift is changing journalism, accountability, and how communities understand what’s happening around them.

There’s more to NHPR’s By Degrees Climate Summit than what happens on the main stage.

Join NHPR at the BNH Stage on Thursday, June 18, for a community conversation centered on the rise of the civic documenter. Doors open at 6:00 p.m., with the show beginning promptly at 7:00 p.m.

Ever wondered how your favorite NHPR shows come together? This April, we’re opening our doors and inviting listeners inside.

Join NHPR at BNH Stage on Tuesday, April 28, 2026 at 7 p.m. for 'Authors on Main' featuring best selling author Emma Straub.

How do communities come together to face shared environmental challenges?
