The current crisis has forced us all to follow a steep learning curve and within a brief moment adjust all our known engagement practices to the digital domain. In this informal session we will take a closer look at a few examples of events from both the Nordic and Dutch communities and as a group explore both the critical factors for 'success' and emerging best practices.

Many of us have been struggling to secure donations since the current crisis started. Here is an idea: working with volunteers and pro bono engagements are effective tools to successfully raise funds and have quick wins. Nathalie Fontana will share a tangible example of how ESMT has made use of these very tools. Get ready for a session that will set your view upside down.
