9/11 Public Discourse Project
- 9/11 Public Discourse Project
The 9/11 Public Discourse Project was a non-governmental organization with 501(c)(3) nonprofit status, started by the ten members of the 9/11 Commission after the commission disbanded on August 21 2004. Intended as a public education campaign which focused on making America safer and more aware of existing and potential dangers, the project ceased operations on December 31 2005.
The project received a $25,000 grant from the Smith Richardson Foundation on December 31 2004, to allow Commissioner Christopher A. Kojm to "lead an effort to educate the American public on the findings of the 9/11 Commission. He will organize a series of nationwide briefings by the members of the commission at which they will discuss the implications of their findings for U.S. national security." "Media Transparency" reported, without further elaboration, that the Project was connected with the Foundation for Rational Economics and Education.
