Topic
Back to Live: Programming in the Era of Physical Distancing
After just a few weeks of confinement, we’re already forming new habits: hosting birthday parties on Zoom, going online to watch performances, crossing the street to keep our physical distance… How do we come out of this? What steps can we take to rebuild trust and invite people from different households to share an experience together?
Format
This Keynote/Webinar consisted of two sessions, in different times of the day, aiming at engaging participants from all over the world.
Each session included:
- Plenary discussion
- Working Group discussions
Participants were guided by experts from a wide geographical, social, inter-disciplinary as well as cross-sectorial range (experts from foundations, social movements, etc) to collect a range of different experiences and strategies.
