So you had a successful event: now what?
Did the event meet all your aims?
Would you like to move on to something else?
Would you like to continue with a similar event?
Investigate other possibilities in this toolkit/resource pack, or contact Lokahi.


How to avoid your event being just another talking shop:
- See if a consensus is reached on an issue – can that lead to practical action, ways forward?
- Or the opposite: is there a debate that needs to be continued? A dispute or conflict that needs resolving? More work that needs to be done to understand the issue, or reach a consensus?
- On the day get views and ideas from participants about practical actions that can be taken on the issue. Are there creative ideas, activist interventions, practical steps? Further research, thinking, discussion?
- Should a new group be formed to take this issue forward?
- Any ideas for projects to implement ideas or resolutions?
- Any new needs identified that can be met through projects, activities, events?
- Include questions aimed at these points in your feedback form or questionnaire.
- Take some kind of follow-up action after the event. Contact people. Identify an ‘action step’ that can be done to progress the issue or project.
