Home: Virtual Facilitation Tools - 0 views

  • This glossary provides an overview on essential tools for virtual facilitation. It has been elaborated by the RTVC team: Sofia, Hans, Stephan, Suresh, Lucy, Holger, Julian and Michael and enriched by tools taken from the Knowledge Sharing Toolkit of CGIAR.

This glossary works like a wiki, so every registered user is allowed to add, edit and comment.
