that's one of the pinch points in the process.
Somebody has to get their heads around what everybody said, and that person has to be aware enough of their own process that they can see where their own resistances are, so you don't end up editing out the stuff that you didn't want to hear.
And that strikes me as one of the most important parts of the entire process, because the person who synthesizes, gathers and synthesizes what it is that was said, is a gatekeeper.
Who did that?
And as I understand it, you said before we started, you ended up with a sociocratic meeting model.
Was that something that came out of the First People's Assembly or had you and Jane already decided as a result of the Trust of People trading that that would be a good thing?
The whole works really.
Got very active WhatsApp group, of which I am a member.
Tell us a little bit about how sociocracy works then.
What is it that gives it structure so that you haven't got the chaos and yet maintains a degree of equity and equanimity?
Right.
Yeah.
Spokes and wheels.
You've got a central...
and yet there's circles around the outside of other different groups that are self-selected.
So the citizen scientists choose, and then they send someone to the central hub to let the central hub know what they're doing.
And if I've understood correctly, and you may not implement this,
There's always the right of recall.
So the citizen science group, for instance, I just fastened on that because I think it's interesting, sends a couple of people and they feel they're not, the couple of people they've sent are not accurately representing what they actually want them to say.
They can recall them and go, no, you're not saying it.
