SUMMARY:Democracy Cafe\"
DESCRIPTION:Cafe conversation topic for this month:  \"If you had th
 e ability to make local or global changes and achieve your desired out
 comes, what would these be?\"  \nJoin fellow community members for s
 timulating conversation around your most desired change. \n \nRSVP 
 Requested to our host Terry Garret at tgfordemocracy  -at- gmail.com\
 nor call 676-7525.  \nLocation:  The Bagelry- 1319 Railroad Ave.  
  \nTime: Thursday March 7th, 2013 from 5:45-9pm.\nCoffee, tea, and 
 light snacks will be available. \nJoin us in creating this 'World Ca
 fe'” style of knowledge sharing conversation, with members of Transi
 tion Whatcom and Living Democracy.\nThe book World Café by Juanita Br
 own & David Isaacs inspires our Democracy Cafe' through 'knowledge sha
 ring”.  We each have a special voice to be shared & heard.\nHere’
 s how Democracy Café works: Each  mini-conversation rotates between 
 tables  with 4-5 people.    At 30” or so, we play musical tables
  and everyone moves to a new table to converse with an entirely new gr
 oup. One person stays at the original table as a “host” of the ide
 as the group has come up with.  The others leave as “ambassadors”
  of the ideas from their table & go on to a different table. A new rou
 nd of discussions begin with the table host presenting the ideas gener
 ated by the first group & the ambassadors joining in with the ideas br
 ought with them from their first table discussions.  After 30” anot
 her table change takes place, and then another. The ideas created are
  “cross pollinated” again & again; usually creating a result that 
 is far beyond anything a single person or round table discussion would
  come up with.\nAt the end, the table notes are placed on the wall so 
 everyone can look them over. A whole group discussion takes place over
  what came up. Personal & family improvements might be New Years resol
 utions.  Community improvement ideas can be presented to the city & c
 ounty.  National ideas can be communicated to our representatives.\n\
