These *diverse ordinary citizens convene for two to ten days to consider some public concern
to learn about it (often by hearing and cross-examining diverse experts), to reflect on it together (usually with the help of a professional facilitator or moderator), and to craft a collective statement which they then announce to the public and/or relevant officials and agencies, often through a press conference.* http://www.co-intelligence.org/CDCUsesAndPotency.html
