Program of participants pressentations
Successfully qualified participants are asked to prepare 10 minutes long presentation (preferably in MS PowerPoint), that will be presented in two sessions at the beginning of the course. Each session will consist of 10 presentations and time for the discussion. The aim of these sessions is to get to know each other, exchange (wetlands) experiences and express participants' expectations to the course in order to improve the communication and understanding among people of the course. Therefore, presentations should be related to participant's own field of work or study and its relation to wetlands issues, if applicable. The programme of the presentation sessions will be made after the completion of the qualification procedure.
