E2. EDEN WorkshopWorkshop

The Steering Committee of the EDEN Network of Academics and Professionals and the Board of EDEN Fellows’ Council organise a joint workshop. All conference delegates are warmly invited to join.

REAL PEOPLE - REAL STORIES:   Lessons from the Pandemic

The global pandemic has had a significant impact on the personal and professional lives of everyone.  Indeed, beyond the most critical health and welfare impacts, the pandemic was/is the catalyst for the unprecedented disruption of the economy, the workforce, local communities and the entire educational sector.  The transformations and impacts of the pandemic will likely continue for years in all sectors.   This session will focus on the human side of the pandemic and we will share personal lessons and experiences from the pandemic and invite the audience to share their personal stories, challenges, lessons, and how they see the future differently. 

We invite you to join us in this open dialogue to share your personal stories.  Some stories/lessons will be personal; others professional and many probably a synthesis of both.   In the spirit of empathy, engagement, humanity and sharing, you will leave this session knowing that we truly are in this together.
