Purpose of discussions

edit

Our goal as a movement is to identify a direction that aligns and inspires us all on our path to 2030. It will help us to better organize and prioritize our activities across the movement. But it will be flexible enough that it applies broadly and over time. In cycle 2 discussions, participants will meet to discuss the overall future of the movement and debate the major themes produced from the first discussion cycle, in order to discuss tradeoffs.

Besides the online discussions on Meta and/or your home wiki, we are anticipating 3 other types of discussions. We will be providing a customized Facilitator's guide to help you conduct these conversations:

  1.   On wiki conversations
