Participants interacting during World Cafe
The projects are reaching their final stages. The last phases of brainstorming and discussions came to and end. However, unlike previous days, the brainstorming was not the highlight of the day. At lunch the groups joined one last time in a group discussion, known as The World Café. Each committee
