Programme Hotseats

A Hot Seat is a topic-based discussion forum led by a facilitator to engage you with others in discussing and exploring in depth some of the ideas and issues around a particular theme or topic. Instead of merely reading about it, participants are encouraged to share ideas and provide feedback. The role of the facilitator(s) is to prompt, provoke, guide and encourage critical thinking.
