Earlier this year the Davos Conversation opened up the dialogue between world leaders and the public using the Internet. Now the World Economic Forum (WEF) is doing the same thing in the run-up to its meeting in Cape Town in June.
Interested parties and persons can engage the WEF by submitting their thoughts via its website and on the video-sharing site YouTube. "Are there any top issues that you think should be discussed in Cape Town? Are there any serious questions you would like to pose to our leadership? Do you have any thoughts and suggestions to recommend to the leaders?" asks an introductory video posted on YouTube.
On the final day of the actual summit, which runs from June 13 to 15, a selection of these submissions will addressed by world leaders in an hour-long session convened specifically for this purpose. Their answers will be recorded and posted on YouTube for public access.
