Next Steps in the Seminar Process
The next plenary meeting is scheduled for the 12th of January 2010. The last sessions will be dedicated to the working groups' project biography presentation. These presentations will be divided into two parts: a summary report of the project biographies based on the thematic list and a summary of comparing core questions. The comparison will be organised as follows:
- Each group member will choose one of the project biographies' principal questions and compare the answers of his/her group members.
- The objective is to identify commonalities and differences, specialities and potential gaps.
The project documentation can be done directly on the wiki, just click on your theme and you can work on your own page. Please finish your presentation with a short statement of what you think could be improved in the process you have found.
