The training included in-person teaching days and online training as well as preliminary and intermediate tasks, and small group work online. During the training, the participants learned presentation skills and media skills, as well as how to share their own stories in a way that suits different audiences and situations. After the training, our experience experts can participate in peer groups and meetings, trainings and seminars, advocacy and development tasks, as well as in cooperation with the media.
