Ways to connect at IDLDRC
Yes, IDLDRC is a virtual conference with delegates from all over the world BUT this does not mean you have to navigate the conference solo. Here are our top tips to network and collaborate during IDLDRC….
- Post your comments and questions for presenters on their individual presentation posts in the conference platform. Researchers have been asked to review their post and respond as often as possible. Let’s get the ball rolling! Answer this question in the comments section at the bottom of this page – What are you most looking forward to for IDLDRC 2024?
- Join one of the Keynote LIVE Q&A’s to connect with other delegates
- Organise to chat face to face, online, or via the phone with another delegate attending IDLDRC to share your daily insights.
- Another idea is to follow the #IDLDRC thread on Twitter to connect with other IDLDRC participants.
