On the last day of the one-week-meeting we invited experts to a professional introduction. This time, after the presentation, we got them involved into an interactive process. We asked them to listen to the results of the project so far and to criticize its professional content. After all, the criticisms were not about professional content, but they mentioned: ’the lack of introductory training’, ’fear of difficulties during fieldwork (conflicts)’, ’lack of concept about how to reach people’, ’the need for branding’, ’need for visibility on the web’.
We learned a lot from the feedback, because during the processing three key points were observed: 1.) How strong is the need for our methodology we are developing, 2.) how understandable are the results of our work, and 3.) what they expect from the continuation.
We have concluded that the first two areas are self-evident: there is a great need for our method, and it is quite simple and understandable. At the same time, we need to make improvements especially in the area of communication and transparency. These lessons will be processed at the next meeting during the workshops.
