We wanted that everyone in this meeting felt they have the
right and the capacity to input, so we asked that everyone
prepare in advance for discussion and planning on the meeting
themes. Also each person was responsible to give a
presentation to the group on a choice of one of the themes.
The idea was that with a supportive atmosphere the process is
a very empowering experience!
