You need only do the same thoughtful pre-work you would with any group - design a question that invites diverse thought and interchange around a topic, invite for diversity, select a good big space, don't squish it into too short a time, design how you are going to do documentation, and so on. Just do it as you would do it for anyone. And, just as for anyone, stay out of their way, and don't think you have to be extra 'helpy' just because they are young people. They'll know exactly what to do, and it will be marvelous.</div><div><br></div><div>Be sure also to collect any art or poetry they may create as they go (as this is often how young people think and explore while they discuss things) and with their permission, included those in the Book of Proceedings along with their session notes.
