Bringing traditionally disparate or oppositional individuals and groups together for a 'team building' day. What would that day look like? What happens if we listen and learn? Can we have better solution-based conversations?
The day could be organised at the world ocean summit, or the plasticity forum, bringing people from ocean conservation together with people from renewable energy, plastics and/or fisheries.
