In this session, we’ll explore how meaningful conversations can help us better understand each other and our communities. We’ll look at our model at Human Restoration Project, commonly used in K-College settings, alongside Cortico/Fora, a conversation tool from MIT. We’ll discuss the benefits of listening to others’ conversations, the goals of qualitative analysis, and the role of multimedia in storytelling, showing how these methods can lead to a deeper understanding of culture, climate, and change-making.
