Format and schedule

This event is inspired by the "un-conference" format where the event attendees select discussion topics. This format can adapt to the wide range of interests among our diverse audiences. In this fully online event, you can move freely between multiple discussion tables in two rounds. You are welcome to participate in all or part of the event. 

You are welcome to participate in all or part of the event. If you are attending just a part of the event, we encourage you to join a session at the beginning of the time blocked on the schedule below.
