At first, people thought it was a joke. But driven by the smell of cooking — and a premeditated absence of any other nutrition — participants gradually came forward with "fundamental principles" they were prepared to at least challenge. As part of the process, Amnesty re-examined its strategy of not taking money from governments, not allowing sections to work on domestic human rights issues, etc. And changes were made, as well as principles reconfirmed. I recommend a Sacred Cow meeting once a year at least.
