Platform
• It is a private space in which
it ensures that users are
anonymous

chosen from a list of avatars
and the name and surnames
or any other personal
information is displayed
• The inclusion questionnaire
allows gathering anonymous
information about the
participants
9. 2. The WYRED
Platform
• All conversations take place
within communities
• There are different
communities, each one
oriented to a topic
• Users can subscribe and
participate in any
community they wish
• The WYRED Platform is a
safe environment in which
people express freely,
always respecting others
and sharing things related to
the activity
10. 2. The WYRED
Platform

of a community you can
participate in the forums,
