We need your ideas for making the details of the program.
1. Keynote / plenary speeches: Speakers are already decided.
2. Workshops:
There are 6 rooms for workshops in the meeting place.
We will use 1 room as an office of student congress, so 5×4=20 workshops can be organized.
Since last announcement, about 10 applications have come.
So there are still about 10 vacancies for workshops.
If you or your group would like to organize workshops, please let us know.
