Our Common Purpose - ideas to explore

Thanks very much, Phil, for taking this initiative to start this blog. I am sure collectively we will all contribute towards utilizing our strengths, knowledge, expertise and vision to fulfill our common purpose. I was wondering if we all brain storm together to generate some ideas.

I came across this site called Chimpanzee Collaboratory
which is a 'collborative project of attorneys, scientists and public policy experts working to make significant and measurable progress in protecting the lives and establishing the legal rights of chimpanzees and other great apes.'

Similarly, we can try to identify a common cause or causes that we can all work together to achieve.
