I am translating a workshop for Non-violence. This is the title of the last paragraph. I was thinking in Proposals and ending or Conclusions and ending but I am not sure if there is a fixed expression for this phrase.
If someone could give a hand, I would be very grateful.
Thank you

Comment: " Thank you very much for your answer. Although "recommendations" could be appropiate since some recommendations are given, I will opt for this option."

Recommendation(s) and Conclusion
Conclusion of course also implies the closure of the meeting, but sounds more positive (conclusive!) than merely "close". It is also a natural follow-on from Recommendations.
Somehow, Recommendations sounds more "final" - like the result of the debate, whereas Proposal is more what it is proposed to discuss/work on.
I.e., the natural order might be : Introduction + Proposal -> Discussion/Workshop -> Summary of Recommendations (= result of discussion)-> Conclusion
But of course, this isn't always the case...!

Victoria Porter-Burns
: I agree Carol - 'recommendations' is better than my 'proposal' suggestion
