Our theme is innovation. Can I share with you an interesting session type we are introducing this year? Townhall is a multipurpose session format for maximum interaction and minimum presentation! No powerpoint slides! You can experience small group exercises within the large workshop group.  Here are some possible “format types”:
Please congratulate Professor Annique Un, Northeastern University, who officiated as Chair of the 2016 Townhalls for putting together an interesting portfolio for you to choose from!
