Next week I would like to make few updates to unMonastery web presence. One of pending tasks relates to clearly expressing how Challenges and Projects relate to each other. I would also like that we can more clearly state who benefits and in what way from the work we do here!
To avoid reinventing the wheel, an activity IMO still very popular even that we have The Internet and The World Wide Web available, I try to look at existing conceptual models relevant to this case.

Looks interesting @katalin, do you focus in your approach just on post unmon session evaluation or it can also come of use in pre future sessions stages?

During #1 Pilot Matera things worked in very centralized way since MT2019 gang arranged space and public funding to cover related expenses. I hope in other sessions in other places support will come more directly from community of voluntary supporters (people paying taxes don’t qualify IMO). Such supporters may find it more important to clearly see the impact people who apply aim for, as well as regularly follow progress of innovations they chose to support!

I think we need to have a discussion about this - maybe tomorrow’s planning meeting can come up with an action plan and platform? Time to put our remote working plans into action
