English: We intended to tackle on the skills gap challenge through a comprehensive needs assessment of the communities in the great lakes region, as we assume there are community members who have not fully contributed because of the language barriers , we had an opportunity to be basing our conversation in our mother tongues (Kinyarwanda, Kiswahili and Kirundi) which are definitely the most spoken languages in our region and any one could understand irrespective of the level of education , we also took an advantage of English and French languages to make translations of the most needed tools in the process in order to seamlessly communicate with these communities and have access to various information and opportunities presented in Wikimedia community at broad stage . So all our tools , documents and resources starting with this proposal itself was be translated in to the four mentioned languages and this increased the engagement of our communities and contributed to the needs assessment research survey for that reason we was able to identify the Gaps in our communities. for future 2030 Implementation process
