> system the
> better?
> ?       What are the stumbling blocks?
> ?       Do they work - what's the impact? How do you measure?
> ?       Is it about how many people receive the message or how
> participants
> were transformed in the process?

> for sources,
> content, as guests, co-producers, to reach the general public?
