Regarding seeing recent interactions in professional online forums: While I appreciate the enthusiasm for asking thought-provoking questions, it's essential that we emphasize the value of offering solutions, initiatives, or actionable insights in our discussions. Merely holding a PhD title and engaging on social media or professional platforms doesn't inherently establish expertise. As a community, our aim should be to elevate the quality of our discourse by not only raising questions but also contributing tangible strategies and pathways to success. Let's continue our engagement with a focus on meaningful dialogue and collaborative problem-solving. #ZeroNow #ncssd #Facts #Solutions #schoolsecurity #protectourgreatestasset Mike Matranga Ron Self, Ed.S.

Registration in now open! We created our own methodology to put yourself in your audiences' shoes and build a narrative for their pain points, hopes and dreams. Why? Because too often, community interactions can become adversarial rather than productive. Misinformation and complex project details can lead to mistrust, cause valuable projects to stall or face resistance. So if you are in the development world, you share this challenge. We invite you to our in-person workshop: "Crafting Effective Communication Strategies for Successful Community Engagement", on Friday, November 1, 2024, from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

Access to community events and public spaces is a vital part of living a full and inclusive life. However, for more than 8.4 million people who require assistance with personal care, attending these events can present significant challenges. The typical ADA-compliant restroom, though a step in the right direction, often falls short of providing the necessary accommodations. The lack of a clean, accommodating space that meets these needs can prevent individuals with disabilities, seniors, veterans, and others who need personal care assistance from fully participating in community activities. This is where Momentum Refresh comes in. Designed with Universal Design principles, Momentum Refresh is a groundbreaking solution that ensures all citizens receive the reasonable accommodations they require—wherever they go. Unlike traditional ADA-compliant restrooms, Momentum Refresh offers a mobile, clean, and fully equipped space that caters to the specific needs of those requiring personal care assistance. Momentum Refresh is not just a vehicle; it’s a gateway to greater inclusivity. For people with disabilities, seniors, and veterans, it provides the dignity of a safe and private space, allowing them to attend community events without worry. For businesses and venues that host large events, it offers a way to welcome all patrons, ensuring that no one is left behind due to inadequate facilities. And for communities committed to equity and commerce, it’s an investment in a more inclusive and vibrant public life. Whether it’s parked at a bustling public point of interest, stationed at a large live-venue event, or reserved for a private gathering, the Momentum Refresh vehicle is a versatile and essential tool in the movement toward true accessibility. By providing this service, communities and businesses can make a powerful statement: everyone deserves the opportunity to participate fully in public life, with the dignity and respect they deserve. Momentum Refresh is more than just a solution; it’s a commitment to inclusivity, equity, and community—a commitment that can go anywhere people want to be.

We’re New_ Public, a nonprofit R&D lab reimagining social media. We’re part of a collaboration called Public Spaces Incubator. 🇨🇦 🇧🇪 🇨🇭 🇩🇪 🇺🇸 For the last year, we’ve been working with CBC/Radio-Canada (Canada), RTBF (Belgium), SRG SSR (Switzerland), ZDF (Germany) and now we can share some of what we’ve been up to! Around the world, public media organizations play a vital role in facilitating public conversations. They act as hosts, moderators, and platforms for communities to connect and engage with each other, especially on tough subjects where people disagree. But online, true dialogue seems like it has never been more difficult. Unstructured comment sections are difficult to moderate, and most of the dominant social media platforms are toxic, chaotic, or politics-averse. Many have fled for smaller, safer spaces like private forums or group chats. So, in response, Public Spaces Incubator brings together four national public broadcasters in an unprecedented, groundbreaking collaboration across language, culture, and region. We've now developed 100 prototypes and sought feedback from more than 200 stakeholders across North America and Europe. Here’s one concept: Comments Slider allows people to submit a response (with or without a written comment) along a spectrum. The slider itself encourages users to see and share more nuanced opinions beyond the typical binary and to find common ground with others across differing opinions. We are aiming to build new, powerful ways to support audiences in talking to each other, build long-lasting relationships, and elevate new voices. Now we have serious work to do in developing these prototypes into useful design features for media organizations’ websites, apps, and other digital platforms. Check out the other test concepts, and learn about the whole project at our website below. website: newpublic.org/psi Comment Slider video: https://lnkd.in/eSAxzCN2 Press release: https://lnkd.in/e2PG8hgT #PublicConversation #PublicMedia #PSI

Why should storytelling matter to you, to us, and our society's future in 2024? Because_______________. What say you? Let's start a discussion here. For a deep dive into how storytelling makes us human, why we think in stories & why YOU, the audience, is the only thing that matters especially when, as humans, we (more than ever before) seek & crave real connection to each other. Read & listen to EMMETT FUREY's DEEP DIVE INTO “NARRATIVE EVOLUTION”: a series about how narrative has evolved over time, and how we - as humans - evolved our narrative orientation to the world.
