Learning[edit]

Projects do not always go according to plan. Sharing what you learned can help you and others plan similar projects in the future. Help the movement learn from your experience by answering the following questions:

  • What worked well?
Using a universal router helped to stabilize internet connection and this encouraged participants to contribute during the events because we could switch between different internet provider when the connection was poor.
  • What did not work so well?
Not providing internet subscription to students made participant engagement difficult after the event because the participants who are mainly students complained of not having subscription on their devices.
  • What would you do differently next time?
I will ensure I provide internet subscription for each participant on their mobile device. I will do this by including it in my budget next time.
