THE CONVERSATION
Why this session?
A convention matters most if people carry useful work home. The closing session invites proposed partners to name achievable next steps and the support each will need.
In today's global context
International meetings often end with broad declarations. Clear ownership, dates and public follow-up can make collaboration more credible.
Ten questions to explore
- Which conversations are ready for action?
- Who is willing to own each next step?
- What contribution can each partner make?
- Which communities must be consulted first?
- What evidence is needed before a commitment?
- How will costs be shared?
- What can begin within ninety days?
- Where should progress be recorded?
- How can a stalled proposal be revised?
- What should be reviewed at the next gathering?
Key outcomes we hope to shape
- A proposed action register for willing partners
- A follow-up rhythm to test after the convention
