especially if areas are operational on these days only

- Funding for Transportation

* for additional costs for farther areas- Monitoring (zoning will be difficult)- Preparing the Student Facilitators and Contact Persons

STRATEGIES

- Talks with Faculty/Departments especially for target

areas or possible linkage to some subjects

- Talks with OSA/COA on possible areas and co-

facilitation of the exposure through the org activities

- Coordination with INAF for budget implications, if any

- Networking for exposure trip areas
