"Community for the 21st Century"

This launch event is the first in a series of "Conversations for the 21st Century", interactive free public events designed to stimulate collective innovation and new patterns of thinking in response to key issues we face as global citizens today.

This session will focus on the topic of "community", and feature three "conversation starters" (thanks to Heartland Circle for coining this term) who together offer a rich diversity of perspectives on the subject, and will help "seed" the interactive "World Cafe" discussion that follows.
