Mid-Year Conference 2006

Fellow Mid-Year Conference was held in the Marriott Hotel, Jakarta, on January 27-29, 2006. You must puzzled, then, amazed. A conference on a weekend? It started on a Friday at 2 PM, and was closed on a Sunday, at 4:30 PM.

The conference was really great and fruitful. Each of the 11 participants, RELO Damon Anderson and RELO Assistant Kun Herrini took turn facilitating a session creatively, from an Oprah Winfrey-like TV show, military-style, class-like, love-hate voting, and many more. Impressive!!

What's more important is that from the conference we learned just how much each had actually done in and with the institutions, how much impact had everyone made. From the sessions also we really learned best practices from each other and even got ideas of how to make the next 5-month of the program be more useful, more creative.

We might not have another chance to get together again in a full team until the end of the program this year, but we can intensify our communication and sharing information using the mailing list and also this blog. Please do not let each of our program in 11 different posts just be gone unidentified. Let more people benefit from this program, directly - by participating in our program, and indirectly - by reading it through the publication of it.

Here are some pictures taken at the conference:
