The institution's forum: raise concerns and vote, find mentoring, announce alumni events.
Why#
Participation needs a place. Concerns become visible, and the community decides what is important.
How it works#

- 1Open “Community” in the dashboard (“Community & self-governance”).
- 2Under “Concerns & voting” raise a concern with a title and optional description; vote for other people's concerns (Fig. 1).

- 4Under “Alumni events” create an event (title, description, start, location, places) or register.
