Sequence of the MIT+ programme online workshop, the second module aims to reflect on how important is solidarity and the culture of sharing. Based on the elaboration of pitch sessions, for a real presenter, participants should identify the goals and outline strategies for their own work and set the position they want to occupy in the global stage.
