Format of the Day
The first speaker got chance to share a story, might it be their own real life experience of more informative, e.g. ID Documentation and different view points on gender expression.
Then the groups of people had time to discuss among themselves, on the story they just have heard. Each group, then could formulate some questions which could then be asked to the guest speaker.
After each session a tea break followed. The day was designed like this, in order to give people a chance to "take in" as much as possible information, and to give them time to think about what they just heard.
There was a lot of new concepts, words, terminology and new ways of expression. It was a lot of information, and therefore I wanted to create a way of absorbing all these new expressions/definitions.
Around the hall was a selection of self-painted posters, with some quotations and ideas. At the back of the hall was a variety of suggested books for further reading.
The day turned out to be an eye-opener experience for everyone who attended.
