To convert into a forum; to create a discussion forum or transform something into a platform for public debate and discussion.
From 'forum' (Latin 'forum', originally meaning 'market place' or 'public square') plus the productive '-ize' suffix. Modern coinage from the late 20th century with the rise of internet discussion platforms.
The word 'forum' comes from Roman public squares where citizens debated—and with internet forums, we literally recreated that ancient Roman democratic space, just digitally, which shows how technology reinvents old human needs!
