EIP-AGRI event app
We will also use our usual EIP-AGRI event app as a way to stimulate networking and interaction among participants. It is linked directly to the virtual event platform. For guidance, read the
technical manual.
Plenary and breakout sessions
During this workshop, we have two types of sessions: plenary sessions and breakouts. You will find 'rooms' for each of these on the virtual event platform.
Breakout sessions
For the breakout sessions on
Wednesday 24 March, you were invited to let us know your preference in the form you recently filled in. We have distributed participants equally taking into account 1st choice where possible. So when the main facilitator invites you to move to the breakout sessions, please go to the session you have been assigned to:
Plenary sessions
We have some house rules that we please ask you to follow:
- To eliminate background noise, microphones need to be muted at all times, except for the speakers and other people with a particular role at a given moment – the facilitator will give them the floor.
- As you can see in the programme, during plenary sessions there will be several opportunities for Questions and Answers (Q&A). You can write your questions in the chat when the facilitator gives the signal. You may then be invited to turn on your microphone and take the floor.
The workshop language will be English.
Get ready for the workshop
In order for you to prepare for the workshop, here are some links for you:
Interactive map of participants
To be able to see the geographical distribution of the workshop participants, we would like to make an
interactive map. Before the event, please
mark yourself on this map. It would be great if you could also add your name, a picture related to your work on reducing carbon footprint in agriculture, a link to your website...
Networking
Please use this workshop as a networking opportunity. As always in our events, we want to encourage you to meet with other participants during coffee and lunch breaks, and learn from each other. You can use the EIP-AGRI virtual events platform and/or the event app to send a private message during the event. You can also find participants' email addresses in the
registration list.
