So happy to have so many of you on the training session (Organizing virtual meetings episode 1: planning & content), we were around 100 people!
As promised, we wanted to follow up with the recording of the call and a variety of other resources. 

  1. Here is the recording of the call!  Please distribute widely. Note that the recording begins a bit before the call, so you will need to fast forward a bit.
  2. You can access the presentation we used here.
  3. Alternatively, if it is more accessible for you to use text-only versions of the material, please find a document summary of the presentation text here (and Word Doc version attached).
  4. We have a longer-term vision of creating text-based toolkits with all of these resources after the three-part series concludes. The toolkits will include three components that reflect the call themes. We hope to translate these resources into Spanish and French, and hopefully other languages as well.
