Organising Hybrid Meetings: Making Them Worthwhile Rather Than Striving for Perfect
Tuesday July 28, 2026 4:00pm - 5:30pm CDT
Location TBA
Sign-in & Notes
Hybrid meetings became common after COVID-19 lockdowns lifted, but many conferences have returned to fully in-person formats, which reduces inclusivity. Travel costs are particularly high for those from the Global South, and many people face restrictions such as caring responsibilities or health issues. This session works with participants to develop: (1) a toolbox of approaches and techniques that work well in hybrid meetings; and (2) a structured list of approaches to a good hybrid meeting covering technology, facilitation, and logistics. Includes a short talk from an EGU representative on how EGU makes hybrid meetings work.

Audience
Anyone looking for approaches to make conferences and events more accessible, participatory, and inclusive — both as organisers and as participants
