Feedback & Keys to Success
How do you feel BAW participation benefited your organization and the local community?
The international BAW Sponsorship is a great fuel for our activities.
Please share any suggestions or lessons learned that may help others plan future events:
Making activities in public places has been so far our best experience and we highly recommend it.
Did/do you like our Facebook page?
Yes
Was the information provided on Facebook useful?
I would ask several of our colleagues, who are also our best examples of outreach activities to send us some of the materials they use, for example the materials from NOGGIN to build neurons and networks of neurons. They are awesome. In that sense placing these partners in strong contact would be desirable throughout the facebook page.
