Mid-Review

As soon as we came back from inspiring Lebanon, it was time to put together a simple presentation that would highlight our efforts of the last months to our peers in the Aalto University course Sustainable Global Technologies. As there was no time yet to digest all the information we gathered during the trip,  this resulted in an information overload in this 6-minute presentation. What was aimed at providing concise insights into our work, turned into an extensive summary of our meetings, brainstorms, research and presentations during the week in Lebanon. This emphasised even more, how much we learned during our stay.

The feedback was mainly positive. We did manage to get across our holistic approach by including last year's project work around renewable energies in the area and linking those insights with the needs we defined around water management. The course leaders were eager to here more about our collaborations previous to and during the trip, as these can prove relevant also for the continuation of the project. Overall, we are happy to have conveyed the mindset that we got into throughout our participation.

Of course, this mid-review was a very rough and simple presentation about our activities, in one month we will have completed a final presentation and report that will be much more thorough on the Rock Village in Arnoun, South Lebanon.

Any comments regarding the presentation are welcome, we would appreciate your input!

Now, after the refreshing Easter break, we are ready to dive into the subject again.
