Stories that moved you, stories that could change the world

[Glory Ressler]

I believe that people want to change the world.... and communities want to 
make things happen. Thanks for the reminder, Doug.
...and you know what, I've just decided that I'm going to Open Space in a 
federal research and community capacity building project I'm managing.
We're using a community-based, collaborative, multi-agency, multi-level of 
gov't approach - to sharing information with the communities in a certain 
region of Canada on how well our they're doing at preparing their children 
for school and life. The whole thing results in evidence-based, 
community-driven action plans that will be integrated into the regional 
planning system...
How can OS and OST not be crucial?

Glory :-)
