## Presentation

Conversations are a discussion forum for your Collective. They are public threads that everyone can read and participate to. Use them to get feedback from your community or to organize your actions!

## Enabling or disabling conversations

Conversations are enabled by default for new Collectives. If you want to enable conversations for an old Collective or an organization, go to Collective settings > Conversations.
