Forums on Public Issues

To create change and move policy, academics, advocates and researchers need to reach beyond the media to engage people who can make a difference and generate action. We are skilled at creating forums, both large and small, that target key change agents.

When planning such events, we can handle the details or help clients manage them. Our services include:

• Providing strategic counsel for events, including identifying goals, audiences, and messages
• Developing the agenda and securing moderators and panelists
• Managing all logistical details, including the venue, equipment, mailing lists, invitations, and RSVPs
• Drafting all materials, from talking points and speakers’ bios to issue briefs and press materials
• Promoting events to targeted audiences, and filling the room with the right people
• Staffing events on-site, as well as follow-up
