If you are uncomfortable with technology, we invite you to join the sessions at the appointed times by following the practice on our Youtube channel.
[Updated on 25/03: technical adjustments are in progress for the alternative via Youtube. We invite you to prefer the connection with Zoom. Thank you for your understanding].
How to use Zoom:

Click on this link: https://zoom.us/j/9150591497 or enter the meeting ID: 9150591497 (✔️ We do keep the same every day.)
New: following technical modifications by Zoom (beyond our control) you will be asked for a session password. This password will always remain the same: 042020
(We recommend you connect using a computer rather than a smartphone or tablet)
