If meetings don't deliver, change format.
Example:
Unlike COPs, the purpose was to "debate practical ways to move away from coal, oil and gas".
The representatives described the conference as a “safe space for discussion”. Said a rep: “That kind of space I haven’t seen in my 10-year history with the UNFCCC.”The representatives have walked away with plans for three workstreams:
a. to develop national “roadmaps” to move away from fossil fuels,
b. to design new tools to address fossil-fuel subsidies – with support by the International Institute for Sustainable Development #IISD
c. to connect fossil fuel producers and consumers to address carbon-intensive trade – with support by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development #OECDMore:

“A well-known principle of human behavior says that when we ask someone to do us a favor we will be more successful if we provide a reason. People simply like to have reasons for what they do.”

It's hard to take a leap and trust something you haven't experienced and don't yet understand. But sometimes it's best to change first and explain later.
