GBH Forum Network

The Forum Network is a public media service of GBH that records lectures from the world's foremost scholars, authors, artists, scientists, policymakers, and community leaders. We make them available online for free, encouraging deeper public understanding and civic engagement around the vital issues of our time.

We maintain this commitment to providing outstanding educational content for lifelong learners with major support from The Lowell Institute, an organization created to carry out the 1836 bequest of John Lowell Jr., to educate the citizens of Boston and beyond.


GBH Forum Network

We hear often that our viewers and subscribers love learning. Now we hope we can learn more about YOU.

Please give us your feedback in this annual audience survey: questionpro.com/t/AatUaZ4mbP 👀

It will only take a few minutes to complete, and your feedback will help us understand more about which talks in Boston we want to make sure to cover and share with our Youtube audience.

Thanks to all of you who have subscribed, and to everyone who can help us make our channel even better!
