Comments from the authors regarding ICCAUA2022

4- What can we do to make next year’s conference even better? You may also mention about the negative part of this conference so we will work on it to solve for the next year.49 responses

***Thank you so much for your great work and communication. It was the best-organized conference I've ever attended. I would like to say that my father Prof. Dr. Mohammed Ben Ali just passed away last week the day I submitted my presentation to you on the 3rd of May. He was an amazing English literature professor who worked for 35 years at the University of Benghazi, When I received the news I felt a great strength to continue and finish the presentation because he was very keen to see it. I have to say that your amazing organized way of communication and online conference website helped me to find it and take this opportunity through the tough times. I consider myself very lucky. So Thank you very much! Sincerely, Hailana Mohammed Ben Ali

***There were no negatives.

***I think to have face to face conference will be more fruitful.

***Some video quality was bad. If it was the network, a better network provider should be secured. If it was from the authors, then kindly preview all submitted videos and the authors were told if the quality was acceptable or not. Or better still, a minimum quality/standard of the video should be stated. Lastly, the rule of ensuring videos did not exceed 10mins was not adhered to by some authors and you did not about it. This doesn't project you as strict to your own rules. Due to the different voice-tunes of authors from different countries, there should be sub-titles all through the presentation to enable better following of the presentation. More time should be allocated to the roundtable discussion in order to better understand the authors. But generally, it was a very good outing. Well done to you the chairman and his team. I wish I join your team next year if I am invited. Arc. John Agmada Bawa

***I think it would be better if the presentations were 20 minutes.

***It is really well-organized conference with really intresting issues and amazing topic.

***you can keep it in hybrid mode, and you can also integrate thoughts about the future of the architect's profession.

***Everything was good.

***Link to join zoom of each section should be sent to our individual emails. Thanks for the good work

***It was one of the most professional virtual conference I've been attended. Next year it'd be great to make it hybrid so that we can visit Alanya.

***The organization was incredible. Better only if it is face-to-face! Thank you for the excellent work.

***Really, I Think everything was so organized and fantastic that I can not mention anything negative. By the contrary, I want to congratulate everyone for the fantastic work.

***keep on the great organization

***Thank You so much

***You can organize the special sessions.

***May improve the technicalities related to an online event

***This confrence is very good

***More times for the discussion after each session

***It was an amazing conference. I hadn’t much difficulties while I was watching it online except for one or two times. However, I really enjoyed it. Thank you so much for giving me such an opportunity.

***I hope the Alanya HEP University can collaborate with other University in another country

***If online - better management of presentations and technical issues

***Preparing better audio for the next year conference, but overall two-day conference was great, thank you very much for all organizing committees.

***Dr. Hourakhsh, You are doing a great job together with your team! I could attend for a short time; as far as I can see you organized everything successfully. Thank you very much for your help and understanding during the process.

***The conference is satisfactory, especially the timing, it was a wonderful experience, but there is always room for improvement in anything in life, kudos to everyone

***I did not encounter any negative situation that would disturb me

***none, thank you

***It was excellent

***the program poster could be more simplified maybe. (I missed my discussion session as I logged in a different link )

***The conference could extend the timing of presentation as everybody in my opinion had to rush through their presentations making it difficult to cover up.

***This was very well organised conference. If possible parallel sessions doesn't allow you to see other presentations. May be cant help having so many presentations and such a varied topics. Hope to attend physical conference soon. Best wishes to the entire team.

***besides keynote speakers, you can invite guests as "invited speakers". Invited speakers are selected to present already published research/projects of very high quality. This will give more quality to the discussions. I must say, this was a very well organized conference. I enjoyed all the works and you have built a very nice a coherent community. as usual.. congratulations and waiting for the next conference!

***Gathering all recommendations of author's and share it in a journal or other formate to be informed by all participants. 2- Increase participation of new moderator and speakers. 3- Ranking author's participation through research, presentation, discussion and effective contribution.

***It would be very beneficial and an amazing experience to meet other fellow authors and speakers if circumstances provide that next year's conference will be live. Definitely looking forward to it. Thank you for a smoothly, seamlessly run conference covering multidisciplinary topics that one could be part of and experience.

***in case of virtual confernece, you could reconsider the fact to launch the interventions via youtube. Each paper can be presentated live on the plantform as well as for the keynote speakers

***Please make sure that the moderator has a good internet connection prior to the event

Everything was fascinating... thank you

***its great, flawless and extremely well organised.

***The conference was an excellent platform to exchange ideas. Though it would have been better if we could have presented the paper at that moment, instead of uploading YouTube links

***I have the honor to participate from the first conference in 2018 and every year is better than the previous year, I just hope to be able to have face to face meetings as soon as the pandemic conditions allow us.

ان يكون المؤتمر حضوريا ان شاءالله***

***nothing

***Not have the three sessions at the same time , and practice before to avoid the technical problems

***I really appreciate the organization of the conference and inclusion of authors from many countries to present and discuss their work on an international platform. It was very effective and insightful. I would like to thank the organization team and wish them to continue this great work in the upcoming years as well.

***I think that the conference will definitely be face to face and it will be more productive for all participants

***make the Conference hybrid ( face to face + online) and establish journal for the conference

***I think that sessions should be longer in duration to give more chance for the roundtables

***A BIG SUCCESS!!! Excellent Organization. Maybe Hybrid mode (online/Offline) would be more interesting! THANK YOU VERY MUCH !

***The conference was perfect. We hope it would be face to face next time.
