 Notes from the Co-creation of [[https://fo.am/events/climate-and-sustainability-action-week/|CSAW, the Climate and Sustainability Action Week]] at EPFL, Lausanne, Switzerland and online.
-During the co-creation of the CSAW Pilot, FoAM is conducting a series of training and mentoring sessions for the EPFL co-creation team. The purpose of these sessions is to learn some some basics of participatory design and hosting/facilitation as well as respond to specific questions by the team, and provide advice for the diverse challenges the team is facing. Each session focuses on a different aspect of process design, collaboration, participatory approaches to complex problems, etc.
