 While we are short after the the elevator pitch of the BT semester we have to report some news from the last semester. Our concepts for the secure meeting room are creating attention up to European level in the organizations of refugees - actually Nadia talks with a couple of parties to implement the concepts.

Passing all the needed safety precautions Nadia with the help of a couple of volunteers form this semesters students set up a nice little exhibition,  while Marcel made sure the Lightvan was safe.

So after lunch both Michael Vrijhof as also Niels Hofstee from ONE presented their work they haven been able to build around the world, shared their philosophy and introduced their structure we will work with this year. 

Have a look, how would you fill this structure with functions?
