A way to connect these organizations could be the joint organization of an event. In our case, it was an intercultural Danube Bridge Breakfast. Amongst the civil society organizations were: Food associations, various international cultural clubs, human rights organizations, etc. The event itself was organized by one of the organizations, and the other organizations functioned as table hosts at the event. The table hosts were given the opportunity to offer food and small delights to the visitors of the event. The table hosts were responsible for the preparation of the food and for their table. Before the event various prep-meetings took place at which the table hosts gathered ideas and were being briefed about the event. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Further\nrecommendations:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Organizational difficulties with volunteering groups: spokesperson was sometimes hard to reach, the changes of spokesperson made it difficult for ILEU and caused communication problems (but the minutes of the meetings helped a little bit to solve these problems)<\/li><li>Make sure to comply with all the regulations of the municipalities concerning safety etc. (E.g.: escape routes)<\/li><li>Some visitors are just attending this event because of the food and do not talk to the table hosts. Make sure that the volunteers at the tables are not shy and maybe show them one or two tricks for conversational openings<\/li><li>Always remember: you are working with volunteers not paid professionals \u2013 get the tone and motivation right<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><\/li><\/ul>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1029","method","type-method","status-publish","hentry","keyword-civil-society","keyword-diversity","keyword-food","keyword-intangible-heritage","keyword-low-threshold-method"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bbe-toolbox.eu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/method\/1029","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bbe-toolbox.eu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/method"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bbe-toolbox.eu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/method"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bbe-toolbox.eu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"version-history":[{"count":13,"href":"https:\/\/bbe-toolbox.eu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/method\/1029\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1349,"href":"https:\/\/bbe-toolbox.eu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/method\/1029\/revisions\/1349"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bbe-toolbox.eu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1029"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
