How did WWViews meetings take place?
The national and regional WWViews meetings took place during one full day and involved roughly 100 citizens at each meeting. The citizens had been presented in advance to written information material and were briefed at the meetings by information videos. The participants were put into smaller groups of 6-8 people with a moderator connected to each group. The moderator guided the discussions at the table through four consecutive sessions of debating and voting on different issues related to the COP15 negotiations. Towards the end of the meeting, each group of citizens formulated one recommendation for negotiators at the COP15.

Results from the national and regional WWViews meetings were immediately available for comparison with results from other the meetings through the WWView
