Organizers takeaways:
- we really enjoyed the workshop and had a lot of fun organizing it
- organizing a workshop is a lot of fun and you can learn a lot from it
- organizing a workshop (across institutions) is a great networking possibility
- organizing a workshop requires some capacities in the preparation phase and takes a lot of capacities during the workshop days (plan to rest afterwards)
- the important information can be communicated on different channels & multiple times (its quite a challenge to reach everyone;)
- for time management reasons, it pays off to spent time to conceptualize the Agenda (& to gather people before the workshops with a bell;)
- Format of Lightning Talks could be improved
Thanks again for making berlin-2020 a great workshop:)
