INTERACTIVE BREAKOUT DISCUSSIONS
Interactive Discussions are informal, moderated discussions, allowing participants to exchange ideas and experiences and develop future collaborations around a focused topic. Each discussion will be led by a facilitator who keeps the discussion on track
and the group engaged. For this in-person event, the facilitator will lead from the front of the room while attendees remain seated to promote social distancing. To get the most out of this format, please come prepared to share examples from your
work, be a part of a collective, problem-solving session, and participate in active idea sharing.
