The chance to bring ideas together in one place. Even though one of the keys to a more just world is changing from competition to co-operation, NGOs can be guilty of competing with each other too.

    Welcome, John!  Yes, more cooperation is certainly part of humanity's New Story.  And this is a place where we are building a community of people who want to bring their ideas together around how we can live into that.  I also like "coopetition," where we compete to see who can best serve the common good!

    It's a great theme for a week's worth of dialogue in the Cafe.  Who do we know who can tell a story of coopetition emerging in a powerful way?  I can think of at least one person I just met at the NCDD conference...

    It's a fascinating inquiry, John.  Your comment reaffirms my sense that a rich conversation is waiting to be had.  Maybe we can bring this over to the Sacred Economics thread that is underway and get a few more folks into to mix.
