Roundtables are sessions with up to three speakers and one coordinator that deal with a subject from different angles, after which there is a debate with the public. At these roundtables there shall always be one mother (or father) who is invited to give her/his views.
Workshops are sessions for discussion, reflection and sharing of experiences. They may or may not end with the adoption of conclusions. They may be open to all or restricted to a specific public.
Discussion groups are occasions for dialogue at which participants can jointly reflect on a topic through problem-solving, information exchange and reflection for action.
There shall also be coordinated oral communication sessions at which research reports and experiment reports that have been approved and selected by the Scientific Committee can be presented. Some of these “abstracts” may possibly be exhibited on electronic posters. Reports for these sessions can be submitted via the event website (www.enam.org.br) until 10 May 2019.
