Our discussions are open, transparent, interactive, informative, educational, and engaging.
We have conversations led by a group member, and we invite guest speakers to share their ideas and input. The overall objective is to listen to the voices of the people on the ground and try to understand the core of the issues and alternatives.
We are not a political group, but we share common concerns for the people at the bottom of the economic pyramid and for the health of the natural resource base on which all life and economic activity depends.
We believe in equality, empowerment, inclusion, and nonviolence.
We also believe in science and technology to help modernize and develop institutions and infrastructure needed to meet the needs of the people at large.
