The essence of this\u00a0exercise was to come up with at least 10 ways in which we could assist one another in\u00a0our various fields of work. There were games provided and presented by Manda Foundation\u00a0and little interludes where we could mingle with our guest and make new\u00a0acquaintances.<\/p>\n<p>During the second half of the program, we were given 5 minutes each to\u00a0talk about our organizations.
