2. Design Global Voices Stories for 2022

   Design Global Voices main editorial product for 2022

   You'll have to teleport yourself to 2022 and look at where technology and the media industry is going to do this exercise. You'll be asking yourself questions such as what will our stories look like in 5 years? Will our main product be the home page on our website? Or will it be distributed content on social media? Or will we be producing a human rights oriented and community driven news wire for news organizations around the world? Or a podcast on Public Radio International? What kinds of formats and perspectives do we need to focus on to stay relevant and competitive in the media industry? This group is about thinking big and boldly and designing the main editorial product you would like to see GV producing in 2022!

4. How do we build a culture of creatively collaborative projects and articles?

   One of the great things about this story we just published (https://globalvoices.org/2017/05/24/when-a-picture-is-worth-a-thousand-wrong-words/) was that it would have not been possible without the input and expertise of a lot of people in GV. It was made all the better through a pretty conscious effort to cross different areas of our organization, which I'm feeling very lucky to be part of. :)

   This element -- of people who sit at the intersections of cultures, languages, and knowledge -- is one of the things that the NewsFrames Team especially wants to enable with the new software we're building (and we're working on community posts to give you an update of where we are at, we promise! the consciously cross-cultural team is kind of core to what's going to be the "NewsFrames process").

   But regardless of NewsFrames, or even any piece of software, the action item for this group would be to figure out, first - do people agree that an important goal for our own sense of mission? Assuming you think 'yes' if you're part of this group, the second question is then clarifying: *why/how it is important and what are three practical ways that we could come up with to make a culture of creatively collaborative projects/articles/etc into a reality during the next two years? (or something like this)

5. If we could boil down Global Voices stories to six themes, what would those themes be?

   In this group, you'll review our past coverage and look at all our different theme categories (we have dozens) and try to boil them down to six that represent our coverage and mission.

6. Marketing strategy

   Create marketing strategies for readers to become more engaged. Perhaps, implementing more quizzes would be a good start. What do you think?
