Hey there! So, we all know how tricky it can be to keep everyone glued to their screens during a gender equality workshop on Zoom, right? Getting the audience to interact not only makes the session lively but also helps them remember the points long after it's over. More engagement means your attendees are more likely to understand and retain information, and the whole session becomes way more impactful.
Map It Out With Magic Maps
A fantastic start to your session could be using Magic Maps. It's an easy way to get everyone involved right at the beginning. Ask your participants where they're joining from, or maybe they're willing to share a special memory connected to a place related to gender equality work. You could even ask them to pin a dream place they believe is making strides in equality. Seeing everyone's dots pop up on the map makes the session more personal and creates a shared space for stories and experiences, breaking the ice early on.

Gather Thoughts with Open-Ended Opinion Polls
For more nuanced discussions, Opinion Polls let people share their thoughts in their own words. You might ask, 'What does gender equality mean to you?' or 'Share a challenge you’ve encountered in gender equality work.' This way, attendees can contribute openly, giving them a platform to express their views, which is crucial for sensitive topics like these. Plus, it's a great way to gather diverse perspectives and broaden the discussion.
Pulse Check with Power Polls
