At Publiks we think deeply and creatively about ways to shape and enhance the public interest — in the present as well as the reasonably distant future. We often choose to do so through the medium of the internet and social media, because at our current moment, it has become one of the more remarkable conduits for views and voices, as they course through our local and global publics across the world.
