Call-to-Committment
A Humanity 2.0 Forum 'call-to-commitment' indicates the desired joint-venture of the particular Forum. Rallying support for the venture is the objective of the Forum and the venture's early success is Humanity 2.0's objective for the year.
xExploratory
A Humanity 2.0 'exploratory panel' is intended to examine a particular impediment to human progress and explore potential solutions. The objective of an 'exploratory panel' is to determine the likelihood a single venture could be brought to bare to significantly address said impediment and whether future efforts of Humanity 2.0 are merited or not at this time.
xThe Future of the Internet

Human-centered Civilizations
Pope Francis in his TED talk in 2017 urged for a “revolution in tenderness". He reminded us that we are not islands unto ourselves, but rather a common family sharing a common home.
The mission is to encourage a culture of love where we recognize each others dignity and work selflessly to build a civilization of true opportunity. This ‘exploratory panel' will delve more deeply into Pope Francis' remarks and suggest courses of action aimed at realizing the Holy Father's vision.

Sponsor the Forum
Every Forum has a call-to-commitment to address one significant impediment to human progress. It gathers a unique cross-section of leaders together in Rome as well as engages the grassroots through platforms to ensure top/down mobilization.
For a company/organization, sponsorship is a way to show solidarity with a particular human effort to move towards a common horizon.
