[REMINDER 1: ANYTHING IN BRACKETS [ ] SHOULD NOT BE READ ALOUD]

[Introductions]

Hi, my name is [your name]! How are you? [Wait for them to answer] Thank you for taking the time to talk with me today. As mentioned in the invitation, we are conducting this interview to learn more about project planners, like yourself, and their priorities when attending climate conference(s) and their previous experiences with such conferences.

Over the next 30 minute or so, I'll be asking you a series of questions in three parts to learn more about your past experience with climate conference(s), effective practices that you have encountered, and your needs.

The audio from this interview will be recorded and then deleted as soon as we transcribe and collate the data. If you prefer not to be recorded, we can reschedule and have someone else on the call to take notes as we go.

Is it ok if I record the audio? [If they say YES, start recording now. If they say NO, send them this link (https://calendly.com/greenearthos-ux/informational-interview) and tell them to schedule a new meeting].

We will ask you at the end of the interview how public you want your answers to be made. The level of disclosure will be completely in your control because we want you to answer freely. You can also completely opt-out of any of your interview data being used at any point.

We would like to send you a copy of your specific answers at the end of the interview.  Please type your email address in the chat. [PASTE the email from the chat into the email field below].
