Feedback of the Caseholders

• Be clear what will be learned on the workshops

• Good Ideas by Combining Multi-Disciplinary

• Focus on the problems that are not solve or not working out

• Focus on dialogue from the design and governance

• The workshop should provoke :

• Discussion and arguments• Expand the perspectives from a narrow point, • Active workshop that people interact

Next step

• Verified the templates with Case Holders

• Review the abstracts and can we incorporated in the workshop

• Design the Activities for the Workshops
