Experience has shown that organizing an IDDS takes at least a year of collaborative volunteer work to plan and prepare. Without good guidance, the process can be like walking through the wilderness in a group: enjoyable, but unnecessary long and potentially exhaustive without a clear vision.
We developed a simple, IDDS Prep Video series to help you learn from past IDDSs and prepare for your IDDS. Inside each video we've inlcuded data, how-tos, examples, and best practices we've gleaned from IDDSs over the past decade from all around the world. Each video is about 15-25 minutes and contains links to futher information.
