GOOD Conversations are a bimonthly salon series in Los Angeles and New York, bringing together thought leaders and luminaries across disciplines for dynamic conversations on current topics and themes. Part panel, part presentation, and always participatory, GOOD Conversations are led by the editors of GOOD magazine and are designed to challenge convention, stimulate discussion and ignite action.

GOOD has also featured Dave Eggers TED Prize wish as Project #12 in their most recent issue.  Titled Brainstorm, GOOD asks its readers to think outside the box on what type of projects private citizens might participate in at their local public schools.  Check out the project and some of the resulting ideas – here, here, and here.
