Heterodox Academy is a nonpartisan, nonprofit membership organization dedicated to advancing the principles of open inquiry, viewpoint diversity, and constructive disagreement in higher education and academic research. Founded in 2015 by Jonathan Haidt, Chris Martin, and Nicholas Rosenkranz, Heterodox Academy aims to address the rise of orthodoxy within scholarly culture that stifles diverse perspectives. They envision college classrooms and campuses that welcome people with diverse viewpoints and foster open inquiry and constructive disagreement.

Heterodox Academy gathers and empowers diverse academic insiders to promote open inquiry, viewpoint diversity, and constructive disagreement. Their core principles include open inquiry, viewpoint diversity, and constructive disagreement, which they believe are essential for separating good ideas from bad and promoting intellectual growth. Heterodox Academy conducts research, develops resources, builds communities, engages with leaders, and elevates public conversations to reshape academic culture and practice.
