HOW to add an event - details for orientation

When creating an event on Google Calendar, select your time slot and a pop up window will appear.

1. / Add a Title

When creating an event on Google Calendar, you have the opportunity to name the event. Go for “Title of the event - organizer” as a structure to inform people what the event is about & who will host it (eg.: “FutureLab X - oikos International”, “Green Co, - oikos Bxl”)

2. / Choose time and date

Here you can also select if it is a recurring or cyclical event

3. / Add oikos community calendar & guests

Add all email addresses of the people you want to invite, including [e-mail]. This way, the event will later pop up in the community calendar!

4. / Add location

Indicate the location of your event in the field called “location”. You might want to include further details in the details part. If your event will be hosted online, add the link or specify where people will find it. If there is a link for applications, put the link in the description field!

5. / Event description
