I’m honored to have been a part of a dynamic deliberation today with about 80 citizens. We discussed the essential elements of constructive, productive and civil public meetings. Check out my posts on CNYSpeaks.com Thank you to FOCUS Greater Syracuse and everyone who participated.
I am a mixed-method researcher, multi-platform journalist, and facilitator of multi-dimensional community engagement projects. My focus is on communication that benefits the public interest. This communication takes many forms: data journalism, participatory journalism, social media engagement, and more. I am based at the Newhouse School of Syracuse University.
The photo you have of me looks like I’m either ranting and raving or practicing ringing somebody’s neck. I swear I was quite civil during the program!
You were indeed Phil and it was a pleasure having you there! I’d say you look as if you are making a substantive point, which I am sure you were!
