Registrants are to identify their preferences for different teams, which are composed of community organizers, researchers, and students in the interest area. At the Symposium, each action/research team will have the opportunity to discuss existing regional initiatives in their sector, and work on those initiatives or new initiatives as they deem appropriate. Each group will also appoint one (or two) conveners for the coming year to serve as a clearinghouse for the group’s action and research initiatives. The teams will report their results before the end of the Symposium day. |
