Abstract	The Kettering Foundation is a nonprofit, operating foundation rooted in the American tradition of cooperative research. Kettering's research is distinctive because it is conducted from the perspective of citizens and focuses on what people can do collectively to address problems affecting their lives, their communities, and their nation. The foundation collaborates with an extensive network of community groups, professional associations, researchers, scholars, and citizens around the world as it seeks to identify and address the challenges to making democracy work as it should through interrelated program areas that focus on citizens, communities, and institutions. The theme of this issue of "Connections" is Kettering's Multinational Research, and focuses on the foundation's year long review of it's multinational research.
