Recap and Testimonials from Bootcamp Participants

During these days, the teams behind the winning ideas had the opportunity to participate in mentoring sessions and workshops focused on the themes of their projects, in order to refine their ideas for the final event, where they will have the chance to present them to policymakers.

At the same time, they also participated in workshops and activities focused on some of the gaps identified during the school sessions, specifically communication and public speaking skills, collaborating and working with people they don’t know well, and making their ideas appealing to different audiences.

Here are some testimonials from participants in this event!
