Vesna,
Can I ask what the expected outputs are from this workshop?
That's an interesting question.
We see this initiative as an extension of our work to increase diversity and inclusion in the RIPE community.
More concrete goals, the way I see it, are: - for those not from the RIPE community: learn about RIPE community, RIPE NCC services, and Internet Governance in general - for RIPE NCC & RIPE community: receive input from a group of people with different background and perspectives - and then implement this feedback to increase diversity - even more specifically: "connect with local communities", in order to invite the groups from Holland & Germany to take part in future RIPE meetings and other RIPE NCC "outreach" events: regional meetings, training courses, hackathons, workshops etc
That sounds pretty great! 😊
OTOH, in the first part of the workshop we will ask for the goals & expectations from everyone present, and these initial plans might get adjusted accordingly.
Entirely fair and good.
We'll send a report back to the list afterwards.
