LESSONS LEARNED
• Frequent change of parents attending meetings stimulates discussion but hinders work as well
• Municipal representatives’ regular attendance at meetings positively affects parents’ motivation to initiate activities
• Each MPC needs to appoint an operational team (5-7) to be involved in planning and organizing meetings with parents
• Organize regular meetings with operational teams more often, not just once a month
• Start discussing ideas of activities with the parents already at the first meetings with them
• Set apart time for planning MPC activities at every meeting
