Why they matter for gatherings
Colin Megill is the founder of Pol.is, a civic and deliberation practitioner focused on developing tools for public dialogue. He designs methods to structure group conversations and decision-making processes.
Facilitators and event designers should study Megill’s work for his approach to scaling deliberative democracy through digital tools that help groups analyze complex conversations and identify consensus.
His methods include Pol.is Conversation Mapping and vTaiwan/Pol.is Deliberation, which use algorithmic analysis to visualize public opinion and guide participatory governance.
Here is where those methods trace back to.
