In this sense, the first capacity-building workshop just took place on the 27^th of March, a first introductory session with the goal of making initial introductions among the cohort. It was useful to have an overview about the programme logistics and objectives and present The Switchers.org platform that is being used to conduct the workshops. In this first meeting, trainees were asked to define their mission and visions through summing up their objectives into a short statement.
