How the Gathering Model Facilitated Networking

The gathering model allowed all different groups there who had similar interests. For example, there was a POC caucus to self organize. There's also like a sex workers group. They were able to come together on their own figure out what was going on. And I think that also facilitated a lot of networking. It allowed for especially newer folks to interact with veterans,. veteran activists and just engage with stuff they might have only felt interested in slightly but actually get involved and contribute.
