Meaningful discourse
Dear Editor:
Many thanks to the Atlantic and the Aspen Institute for putting together such a fabulous Aspen Ideas Festival. This event continues the Aspen tradition of bringing together thought leaders to address the world’s challenges and in so doing revitalizes the heart and soul of our community.
I am also convinced that this sharing of ideas truly makes a difference in the context of today’s broader challenges.
