The 16 regional Coffee Sessions have been important platforms for connection and exchange in times of crisis and isolation. More than 800 persons have been part of the conversations in the meetings and many have followed the live streamings on Facebook (23.000 views). 

ASSITEJ will continue the online meetings over the coming months. The two first sessions we can announce are:

Manifesto – points of action
