Workshop

Each group will count with a basic text about each topic and its presentation will be evaluated according to the following parameters:

    • Group research about the topic: Please do not stick only to the basic text, part of your work is to compare different sources about the topic and bring these approaches to discussion.

    • Presentation of a theoretical background about the topic, followed by one or two practical cases in your city, region, or country: Try to explain their points of contact, differentiation, or contradictions with the theoretical framework.

    • Discussion questions: Prepare between 3 to 5 discussion questions for the plenary

    • Presentation: Prepare a presentation or any other interactive resource which helps us to understand what you are presenting. Try to be creative.

Each presentation should take about 20 minutes followed by a 20 minutes time for questions and discussion. The presentations will take place during the 10th and 11th sessions of the seminar in the morning of Saturday the 2nd of July.
