Review

• What worked well?

• The Sessions were nicely managed. Online Sessions and the resource videos shared were of great help.

• What didn't work well?

• Nothing as such.

• What do you think could have been done better?

• Experts from specific area such as cartography could have been invited to give further inputs.

Anything else

• I personally always miss the souvenirs from the Camps. The tradition has been stopped off late. It needs to be started.
• Next time we need to include a edit-thon, where in all work on some practice example, after having learnt in training.
• My special thanks and congratulations to Organizers for conducting it.
• Further to carry out further camps on advance topics or GIMP, Animation etc.
